If you work with test cases in Helix ALM, you can generate test cases from approved requirements. Testers can use these test cases validate that each requirement is implemented correctly. Requirement information is added to the following test case fields by default:
Note: Depending on the project configuration, additional information may be copied from the requirement.
When you create a test case from a requirement, you can create a link between the items. This is recommended because it can help you verify that each requirement has adequate test coverage, view relationships between related requirements and test cases, and analyze the impact of requirement changes on related test cases.
Note: It may take several minutes to generate test cases from multiple requirements.
