Assigning a Group of Testers to a Business Component

Use the Components page of a flow or a business process test to assign a group of testers to a business component.

Before you can assign a group of testers to a business component, ensure that the group is assigned to the project that contains the business process test or the flow.

  1. Select the business process test or the flow that contains the business component to which you want to assign a group of testers.
    • If the business component is included in a business process test, click Tests > Details View.
    • If the business component is included in a flow, click Tests > Libraries.
  2. Click the Components tab.
  3. Right-click on the business component to which you want to assign a group of testers.
    Note: You can only assign a group of testers to a component on the first hierarchy level, not to a sub-component of another component.
  4. Click Edit Assigned Testers. The Edit Assigned Testers dialog box appears.
  5. Select the group from the Assigned Testers list.
    Note: This list displays only the groups that are assigned to the project that contains the business process test or the flow.
  6. Click OK.
Note:
  • For each Silk Central user, the Manual Tests Assigned to Me panel in the Silk Central start page shows the business components that are ready for execution.
  • All members of the selected group are informed through an email that a business component is ready for execution.
  • When the execution of a business component is finished, the members of the user group that is assigned to the next business component in the same flow are notified through an email.
  • If no group is assigned to a business component, the settings from the Deployment tab are used.
  • The Executed by property shows who is executing a business-process test. This property is visible in the Manual Testing Window and in the Activities page.
Note: You cannot assign groups of testers to a flow.
