Test groups are used to summarize and display the results of the Coverage Analyzer for a particular group of persons under one generic heading.
You can create or delete a test group by choosing Test Groups in the main menu. First, you choose Display <-> Change which adds the function Append row to the icon bar underneath. When you click this icon, two input fields appear in which you can enter a test group and a description. You then have to save the entries, which are made available as a generic term. Two predefined test groups are always available and must not, therefore, be created:
Test Group |
Description |
ALL |
Coverage results summarized for all test groups on the local system. These include the results for all users irrespective of whether they have been assigned to a test group. |
COND |
Coverage results on the local system and remote system, if coverage of data from the remote system is active. |

Only users assigned a role with the authorization object S_COV_ADM and authorization value 02 are allowed to define test groups. These users must also be entered in the user list. The Q Manager role fulfills these requirements.

To avoid affecting system performance, you should not create too many test groups because the evaluation time for the global view increases in proportion to the number of test groups. You should not create more than 10 test groups.
