Everything you need to know about the SquashTM-GitLab integration
From the requirements repository to deployment: each step of the GitLab cycle and the SquashTM workspace that supports it.
01
Synchronise GitLab objects in the requirements repository
- Map GitLab Epics*, Milestones, Iterations and Issues to SquashTM test requirements — speeds up tests definition by using already synchronised test requirements
- Ensure full traceability of GitLab Issues — associate test cases to synchronised requirements
* Available in future versions of SquashTM and GitLab
02
Design your functional tests
- Describe your manual and automated tests — for a homogeneous test repository
- Generate Cucumber and Robot Framework scripts for BDD test cases — enables guaranteeing the match of functional automated tests to their specifications
03
Plan test execution
- Tailor manual and automated test plans using wizards — easy identification of test cases to cover a scope of Issues, Iterations or Milestones
- Integrate automated test execution in the CI/CD pipeline
- Define and customise a quality gate for the CI/CD pipeline — complement your security scans and enable you to focus on critical, relevant tests and results, regardless of flaky tests
04
Run functional tests
- Access test results, reports and quality gate in GitLab — secure go-live by giving stakeholders the full picture
- Report in the merge requests the functional quality gate outcome — prevents the merge of functionally app-breaking code increments
- Declaration of anomalies right from SquashTM as GitLab Issues — allows QA to create templated Issues automatically pre-filled with test data to facilitate communication with the dev team
- Link detected issues to the original Issues* — the release management has a full picture for the go/no-go of the feature
* Available in future versions of SquashTM and GitLab
