Shows how many tests accumulated in test sets at specific points during a period of time.

Specify the time interval displayed along the x-axis, and the test information by which ALM groups the data. Specify whether you want to view the number of tests or the change in the number of tests.

If you create the graph in the Test Lab module, you can choose whether to include only the current test set or all test sets.

Summary Graph

Shows how many tests in an ALM project belong to test sets.

Specify the type of data displayed along the x-axis, and the test plan and test in test set information by which ALM groups the data.

If you create the graph in the Test Lab module, you can choose whether or not to include only the current test set or all test sets.

Shows the test execution status of each test set under the filtered test set folder. A test execution treemap enables you to visualize the test sets differences from the perspectives of the failed ratio and total of test instances.

In a treemap, each rectangle represents a test set:

• Number of rectangles. To configure which test sets are included in a treemap, you use the Test Set: Test Set Folder filter to select the test set folder under which all the test sets are included. See Configure test execution treemap graphs.

• Rectangle size. Indicates the number of test instances in a test set.

• Rectangle color. Indicates the failed ratio of test instances in a test set, that is the percentage of failed test instances to all executed test instances.

  • Red. By default, test sets with failed ratios higher than the default tolerant value (0%) or your custom tolerant value are displayed in red. In this failed ratio range, test sets with lower failed ratios are displayed in lighter red.

  • Green. By default, test sets with failed ratios equal to or lower than the default tolerant value or your custom tolerant value are displayed in green. In this failed ratio range, test sets with higher failed ratios are displayed in lighter green.

You can configure the treemap to define which types of statuses are grouped into failed and executed. See Configure test execution treemap graphs.

You can set your custom tolerant value and rectangle colors for the treemap. See Set treemap appearance.

Planned vs. Actual - Last Test Run

Composed of a Plan line, a bar for each period, and an Actual line.

• Plan line. Accumulates the number of test instances that are planned to be executed by each period.

  • By default, the Plan line is calculated automatically. It shows the ideal test execution progress, assuming the same execution rate in each period.

  • (Available in 17.0.1 and later) If the Plan line is calculated based on the Planned Exec Date, it shows the number of test instances whose Planned Exec Date falls within the specified period.

    For details about how to define the plan line and period, see Configure planned vs. actual graphs.

• Bars. The bars show the number of test instances that are executed during each period.

  If a test instance is run multiple times, only the last run counts and is reflected in the bar for the last period.

  For example, you ran 5 instances on Day 1 and reran 2 of them on Day 2. If you check the graph on Day 1, you see a bar with 5 test instances for Day 1. If you check the graph on Day 2, you see a bar with 3 test instances for Day 1 and a bar with 2 test instances for Day 2.

• Actual line. Accumulates the number of test instances that have been completed by each period.

We recommend you use this graph if you are interested in actual progress only.

Note: This graph is named Test Execution - Planned vs. Actual in versions earlier than ALM 16.0.1.

Composed of a Plan line, a bar for each day, and an Actual line.

• Plan line. Shows the ideal test execution progress, assuming the same execution rate per day. It indicates the accumulated number of test instances that are planned to be executed per day.

• Bars. The bars show the number of test instances that are executed per day.

  If a test instance is run for multiple times, every run counts and is reflected in the bar of the corresponding day.

  For example, you ran 5 test instances on Day 1 and reran 2 of them on Day 2. If you check the graph on Day 1, you see a bar with 5 test instances for Day 1. If you check the graph on Day 2, you see a bar with 5 test instances for Day 1 and a bar with 2 test instances for Day 2.

• Actual line. Accumulates the number of test instances that have been completed per day.

We recommend you use this graph if you are interested in both actual progress and actual daily workload.

Available in versions: 16.0.1 and later

Specify the defect information by which ALM groups the data, and the data displayed along the y-axis. Specify the time interval that you want to use to divide the data.

The age of a Closed defect is the difference between the date on which it was reported and the date on which it was closed. After a defect is closed, its age remains static.

Shows how long defects remained in each phase.
