Test Execution Dashboard Guide

The Test Execution & Production Monitoring Dashboard provides end-to-end visibility into test execution progress, execution quality, defect trends, execution coverage, and environment readiness.

This dashboard enables stakeholders to:

  • Monitor execution health in real time

  • Track pass/fail trends across users and projects

  • Identify execution gaps and unexecuted test cases

  • Correlate execution results with defect trends

  • Ensure infrastructure and device readiness

It is primarily used by QA Leads, Test Managers, Delivery Managers, and Release Teams during execution cycles and production monitoring.

How to Use Dashboard Graphs (Common Instructions for All Widgets)

Every widget on the dashboard includes a standard three-dot (⋮) menu in the top-right corner. These options behave the same across all graphs.

  • Force Refresh: Reloads the widget with the latest data. Always use this before reviews or release decisions.

  • Enter Fullscreen: Expands the graph for better visibility during meetings or presentations.

  • Edit Chart: Allows authorized users to modify filters, grouping, or metrics.

  • Cross-Filtering Scoping: Selecting data in one widget automatically filters related widgets for deeper analysis.

  • View Query: Displays the underlying logic or query used to generate the graph (mainly for admins/audits).

  • View as Table: Converts the graph into a table to view exact counts and records.

  • Drill to Detail: Opens individual defect records contributing to the graph.

  • Share: Generates shareable links or embedded views.

  • Download: Exports the graph or data as Image, PDF, or CSV/Excel.


User-wise Count of Test Case Executions – Status Wise

Description

This widget displays the number of test cases executed by each user, categorized by execution status.

Axis Details

  • X-Axis: User Name / User ID

  • Y-Axis: Count of Test Case Executions

Status Classification

  • Passed

  • Failed

  • Aborted / Not Executed (if applicable)

Interpretation

Each bar represents a user, segmented by execution status. A higher Passed count indicates effective execution, while a higher Failed count may point to unstable builds or complex test scenarios.

Business & Operational Value

  • Assesses tester productivity

  • Highlights execution ownership

  • Helps balance workload


Count of Defects Logged in Execution Plan – Execution Date Wise

Description

Shows the number of defects logged during test execution, grouped by execution date.

Axis Details

  • X-Axis: Execution Date

  • Y-Axis: Count of Defects Logged

Interpretation

Spikes indicate unstable builds or high-risk execution windows, while downward trends suggest improved quality.

Business & Operational Value

  • Correlates failures with defect trends

  • Identifies problematic builds early

  • Supports release quality assessment


List of Registered Devices in a Project

Description

Displays a tabular list of devices registered under each project.

Data Fields Explained

  • Project ID

  • Project Name

  • Technology Type (Android, iOS, Web, etc.)

  • Device Name / Device Identifier

Interpretation

Provides visibility into device availability for execution.

Business & Operational Value

  • Ensures device coverage

  • Prevents execution delays due to missing infrastructure

  • Supports cross-platform testing


List of Registered Machines – Client Wise

Description

Displays a client-wise list of machines available for test execution.

Data Fields Explained

  • Client Name

  • Machine Name

  • OS / Platform Details

Interpretation

Shows infrastructure readiness across clients.

Business & Operational Value

  • Supports distributed execution

  • Ensures environment readiness

  • Helps with infrastructure planning


Project-wise Count of Test Case Executions – Status Wise

Description

Displays execution status distribution across projects.

Axis Details

  • X-Axis: Project Name

  • Y-Axis: Count of Test Case Executions

Interpretation

High Passed counts indicate stable projects, while high Failed counts highlight project-level risk areas.

Business & Operational Value

  • Enables project health comparison

  • Helps prioritize stabilization efforts


Overall Execution Plan Status

Description

Provides a high-level summary of the execution plan status.

Status Categories

  • Passed

  • Failed

  • Not Executed

  • Inprogress

  • Blocked

Interpretation

A large Not Executed portion indicates incomplete execution and potential delivery risk.

Business & Operational Value

  • Quick execution health snapshot

  • Useful for management and release reviews


Key Takeaways & Best Practices

  • Monitor Not Executed trends daily to avoid last-minute risks

  • Correlate execution failures with defect trends for root cause analysis

  • Ensure device and machine readiness before execution cycles

  • Use user-wise reports for capacity planning and balancing

  • Combine execution insights with Defect and Requirement dashboards for complete visibility
