How to down select dataset of Tests in Test Set?

[Lisa B]

I have tests with a dataset, providing parameters to create many iterations of a Test. I would like to create a Test Set that is only specific iterations of a Test. How can I do this in the Test Set issue? From what I can see there is not a way to down select the dataset, as there is in the Test Plan.

For Example:

Test: drive_at_speed has the following dataset:

test_name. actor, speed

test100, sedan, 10

test200, sedan, 20

test300, SUV, 10

test400, SUV 20

I would like my Test Set to contain just 2 of the 4 iterations in the Test drive_at_speed.

Test Set: drive_at_speed_10

test_name. actor, speed

test100, sedan, 10

test300, SUV, 10

Hi @Lisa B 

Welcome to the community.

To answer your question, no you can't.

The parameters you use from a dataset are related to the iterations (executions of a test)

From Xray documentation

"Dataset scopes

A dataset can be defined in the following entities/scopes:

1. Test (default dataset)
2. Test Plan - Test
3. Test Execution - Test (Test Run)"

The Test Set issue type is for grouping test in a logical way, like using windows explorer (see them as a folder).
