Test Case status

Question

Hi All,&nbsp;Does anyone know how we can make define a test case (via scripting) to do not have a successful or failed status? (example: aborted, skipped)&nbsp;The scenario is for example, we check if any data is available in our system and if not, the test should not be run (without failure) but even without being reported as successfully tested (thus, skipped/aborted).&nbsp;We are also using Azure DevOps for running tests and see possible statuses on such platform for tests.&nbsp;Appreciate your assistance

You could add a "data check" test that is run in the appropriate places and if that test passes, then proceed with the other tests, otherwise skip them.

Hi Marsha,&nbsp;Thanks for your feedback. Can you explain in better detail how this could be achieved via scripting?Kindest regards

If you are performing this check manually, how can you tell if the data is present or not?

Dear Marsha,&nbsp;Check is done via database query within the script and not performed manually. Basically, we perform a query and if no records are retrieved, then, we need to skip the test without being marked as failed/passed but rather as skipped/aborted or similar.&nbsp;Kindest regards

Do you want this check to be run once before all your tests or should there be a check before several tests in your suite?
