Hi,
We're using host monitor in a development environment.
It's natural that tests will fail in such an environment.
I want to give developers access to the web interface of host monitor with the permission to pause tests.
I still need the control, so I want some kind of alert for paused tests.
The alerts doesn't need to be immediate, it can be a daily report for example.
The report should include a list of tests which have been paused, time of pause, time of resume.
Email for every paused/resumed test can also get the job done.
How can I get such a thing?
Thanks
Report/alert of paused/disabled tests
Its not a problem to create report and send it by e-mail at specific time:
1) create report profile using menu Profiles -> Report Manager.
Note: you should mark only 1 item in "Display the following test items" list: Out of schedule
2) Create action profile using menu Profile -> Action profiles
Add "Generate reports" and "Send e-mail" actions into profile.
Use "Condition to start action: on the schedule" option for both actions.
Use "Generate reports for specific folder" option for "Generate reports" action, select Root folder and "Recursive mode: Folder + all subfolders" option and do not forget to set/check list of reports (target files) assigned to the folder using Folder Properties dialog (Reports tab)
3) Open Options dialog, select Scheduler tab and specify when do you want to start this action profile.
The problem: this report will provide list of paused tests but it will not tell you when test items will be resumed. Unless you provide such comment when you pause test item, then you may use %PauseComment% variable in report template (if you are using "Custom HTML" report)
