A Test Run is defined as executing a specific set of tests (test suite) against a particular version or build of an application or system under evaluation.
Key Aspects:
- Execution Context: The specific version or build being tested during this run.
- Scope of Tests Executed: The set of tests included in this run (e.g., regression tests).
- Duration & Resources Used: Time taken for execution and resources utilised during this run.
Conducting multiple test runs allows teams to track changes in software behaviour over time as defects are fixed or features are added.
