Test Script 'Description' field
![]()
Hi all,
I have a question regarding the 'Description' field in a Test Script. My problem is that when you create a Test Script you can enter information in the field but when you run that test script the Description field is missing. This seems quite silly as why would there be a field in the creation but not when you run the test script? Any help would be appreciated. |

The description is specific to the test script object the runnable script file is associated with. A test case refers to this script object and when its runs, it runs the associated script file. I guess I am trying to understand where you'd have preferred to see the description of the test script object show up ? In the execution results perhaps ? FYI, I is worth noting that the execution result does link to the script object and if you click on it, it will open test script object editor which has that description. I hope that helps.

In that case, I'd request you to open an enhancement work item for this with details on what you'd expect the UI to do/behave and let the RQM development team take the next course of action on it. The link to open a new work item is:
