Configuring Test Lists¶
To edit existing test lists or create new test lists click on the Test Lists in the QC section on the main admin page.
Create a new test list by clicking the Add Test List link on the Test Lists admin page. The fields for defining a new test list are described below.
Name¶
A descriptive name that will be displayed in listings of test-lists.
Slug¶
A slug is a URL friendly short label for a test list. It should consist of only letters, numbers, underscores and hyphens.
Warning Message¶
Use this field to define the message shown when a test within this test is at Action level. If the message is left blank, a warning message will not be shown for out of tolerance tests.
Javascript¶
You can enter arbitrary Javascript snippets here, and they will be injected into the page when performing the test list.
Javascript Injection
Test List Members¶
Test lists comprise Tests and/or other Test Lists, called Sublists. In order to add a test to your test list, click the magnifying glass beside the first text box under the Test header.
Search for a test
This will bring up a dialogue box that you can use to search for the test you want to add (or create a new one).
Search results
Once you’ve found the test you want to add, clicking on its name will close the dialogue box and add the test to your test list.
Test added to list
Likewise, you can select another Test List to include by using the Sublist entry field:
Adding a Sublist to a Test List
If you need to add more Tests or Sublists, then click the Add another Test List Membership or Add another Sublist links.
You can choose to have Sublists distinguished visually by checking the corresponding Show Outline Around Sublist checkbox.
If you now click the Save and continue editing button at the bottom of the page, you will see the name of your test next to its id number.
Test added and saved
Continue to add tests in this fashion (you can add many tests without saving in between) until you have added all the required tests.
When you are finished click Save and continue editing and confirm that all your tests are present. See the section below for instructions on how to reorder the tests if required.
Reordering Tests and Sublists within a Test List¶
Tests and Sublist’s can easily be reordered by dragging and dropping a tests row into a new position in the list. After you have finished reordering click Save and continue editing and ensure all your tests are now in the correct order.

Attachments¶
You can add arbitrary attachments to a Test List (e.g. a PDF procedure for performing the Test List) by uploading them using the Attachments section at the bottom of the Test List configuration page.
