Test Suites
Test suites are the foundational building blocks of your testing strategy in DevOps Center Testing. A test suite is a logically grouped collection of tests from a single test provider — such as a set of Apex unit tests, a Code Analyzer scan configuration, or a partner test package. Rather than running individual tests one by one, test suites let you define meaningful groups of tests that reflect your team's quality standards and assign them as a unit to pipeline stages.
Test suites originate from your configured test providers. When you sync a provider, its available suites are pulled into the Tests tab in DevOps Center, where you can assign them to stages, monitor their execution, and review results.
How Test Suites Work in Your Pipeline
- Each pipeline stage — Development, Integration, Staging, and Production — can have its own set of assigned test suites.
- When a Review Event or Pre-Promotion Event is triggered, all test suites assigned to the relevant stage run automatically as a group.
- Quality gates evaluate the combined results of the suite run to determine whether the work item meets your release standards.
What You Can Do with Test Suites
- Assign test suites to specific pipeline stages to control what gets tested and when.
- Remove suite assignments when a suite is no longer relevant to a stage.
- Reorder and manage suites from the Tests tab in the Pipeline view.
- View individual test results within a suite after execution to pinpoint failures.
- Add Test Suites to a Stage
Assign test suites to a pipeline stage to automate quality checks when a Review Event or Pre-Promotion Event is triggered for that stage. - Unassign Test Suites from a Stage
Unassign a test suite from a stage when it's no longer relevant or when you need to streamline testing for a faster deployment. Removing an assignment does not delete the test suite — it remains available to reassign at any time. - View Test Suite Group Execution
Monitor the live status and results of all test suites running as a group during a review or promotion event.
