Implicit New TER creation, can it be stopped??
![](http://jazz.net/_images/myphoto/57a9086293ac951f0ed40581fb33d80b.jpg)
Hello,
When I change the execution properties for test cases in a test suite (e.g. MileStone), RQM creates a new TER with a status of Not Run without an associated test script.
How can I prevent this from happening? Am I doing something wrong?
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open any test suite
2. Click Test Cases
3. Change execution properties of all test cases (e.g. Milestone, Environment)
4. From Main Menu, Execution ->View TERs. The TERs with a status of No Results found are listed.
Thanks,
Homer

Everything that gets ran needs an Execution Record. Pre-RQM 3.0, the TERs were being created when a test suite was saved. To the best of my knowledge there is no way to prevent this. Starting with RQM 3.0 the creation of the TERs used by a test suite, is delayed until execution time. For RQM 3.0 the TERs will not be created when a test suite is saved. Only when a test suite is executed and only if an existing TER doesn't already exist with the specified case/configuration/plan/milestone.
