Mobile AccessThis section lists all the test sets (groups of test cases) you have been made owner of, across all the different projects you are a member of. This typically means that the project manager has assigned you to be responsible for executing the test cases contained within the test set against a specified release of the system under test. To aid in this process, the test set name is displayed, along with its status, the project it belongs to, the number of remaining test cases to be executed, and the date by which all the tests need to have been run.
If you click on the test-set name hyperlink, you will be taken to the details page for this test-set (see section 5.6) and the project that the test-set belongs to will be made your current project. If you click on the “>Execute” link listed below it will actually launch the test-cases contained within the test-set in the test-case execution module (see section 5.4) so that you can easily carry out your assigned testing task.
