Test Cases & Folders
Create, organize, and manage your test cases
Test cases are the core building blocks of your test suite. Each test case contains a sequence of steps that verify a specific workflow or feature in your application.
Creating a Test Case
- Navigate to Test Cases in the sidebar
- Click New Test Case
- Give it a name that describes the workflow being tested (e.g., "User can complete checkout with credit card")
- Add steps to define the test flow
Each test case is automatically assigned a number in the format TC-123. This number is unique within your team and makes it easy to reference test cases in discussions, bug reports, and CI/CD logs.
Folders
Organize test cases into folders to keep your test library manageable as it grows.
- Create folders from the test cases sidebar
- Rename or delete folders via the context menu
- Move test cases between folders using the "Move to Folder" action in the test case menu
- Nest folders for deeper organization (e.g.,
Authentication > Social Login) - Ungrouped tests appear in a dedicated Ungrouped filter
Test Case Health
QAbyAI automatically tracks the health of each test case based on recent execution history:
| Health Status | What it means |
|---|---|
| Stable | Consistently passing — your test is reliable |
| Flaky | Inconsistent results — sometimes passes, sometimes fails |
| Broken | No recent passes — needs investigation |
| Regressing | Recently started failing after a period of passing |
| Recovering | Was broken but has started passing again |
| New | Recently created, not enough history to classify |
Health status helps you prioritize maintenance. Focus on Broken and Regressing tests first, then investigate Flaky tests to improve reliability.
Searching & Filtering
The test cases page provides several ways to find what you need:
- Search — Find test cases by name or TC number
- All Tests — View everything
- Recent — The 10 most recently updated test cases
- Flaky — Tests with inconsistent results
- Broken — Tests that are currently failing
- Regressing — Tests that recently started failing
- Ungrouped — Tests not assigned to any folder
Adding to Test Suites
Test cases can be added to one or more test suites for organized execution. From a test case, use the "Add to Suite" action to include it in a suite.
