Creating an artifact

Test artifacts associate objects such as test suites and datapools; that is, artifacts make an asset available to a test suite.

Repeat the same sequence of steps as for creating a deployment but this time create an artifact named testArtifact.

  1. Right-click in the Test Navigator and select New > TestElement...
  2. Open Test Assets and select artifact.
  3. Click on Next to open the New Artifact dialog.
  4. Select the parent folder and enter the artifact name (testArtifact).
  5. Click on Next and optionally enter a description for the artifact.
  6. Click on Finish. The Artifact editor opens.
