Test Cycles represent specific execution rounds or testing phases, such as "v2.0 Release Testing" or "Sprint 5 Regression." Cycles contain Test Case Executions and can be populated from manual selection, collections, or entire folders. They track overall progress and aggregate pass/fail metrics across all executions.

Test Cycle workflow is straightforward, when the Test Set has been prepared, it can be marked for execution. When executions progress, status changes automatically.

Note

Test Execution can only start, when the cycle set to Ready to Execute.
