Milestones
A milestone is a named marker — a release, a sprint, a beta, or any quality gate your team uses — that you can attach one or more test runs to. When runs are linked to a milestone, Collabase aggregates their results into a single quality view. Use milestones to answer questions like: “Is v3.0 ready to ship?” or “How did quality trend across the last four sprints?”Milestone fields
Creating a milestone
1
Open your test project
Navigate to the Space → Test Management → select the project.
2
Click the Milestones tab
Click Milestones in the project’s top navigation bar.
3
Click + New Milestone
Click + New Milestone in the top right.
4
Fill in the details
Enter a name and optionally set a due date. Click Create.
Assigning a test run to a milestone
You assign a run to a milestone when you create the run — or you can update the assignment afterward. When creating a run: In the New Run form, select the milestone from the Milestone dropdown before clicking Create Run. The run is linked to the milestone immediately. After a run is created:- Open the run.
- Click the Milestone field in the run’s sidebar.
- Select the milestone from the dropdown.
- The run is linked immediately and its results begin contributing to the milestone’s metrics.
Viewing all runs under a milestone
1
Open the milestone
In the project’s Milestones tab, click the milestone name.
2
Review the milestone detail
The milestone detail view shows:
- Aggregate pass rate — the combined pass rate across all linked runs
- Total passed / failed / blocked / skipped — summed counts from all linked runs
- Run list — each linked run with its name, date, status, case count, and individual pass rate
3
Drill into a run
Click any run in the list to open its full detail view and see individual case results.
Milestone metrics
Milestone metrics are computed from the results of all linked runs. They update automatically whenever a linked run is completed or modified.Metrics are computed on demand when you view the milestone. They are not stored separately. A milestone with no linked runs or no completed runs shows N/A for the pass rate.
Linking a task to a milestone
You can associate a task in Collabase Projects with a test milestone directly from the task’s detail view. This lets you see which milestone a piece of work is being tracked under — and gives QA teams traceability from work items to release quality gates.1
Open the task
Navigate to the task in a Collabase project.
2
Open the Test Management panel
In the top bar of the task, click the Tests button (the test management icon). The Test Management panel opens on the right side.
3
Select a milestone
In the Test Milestone section, click the milestone dropdown. Milestones from all test projects in the same space are shown, grouped by project. Select the milestone that covers this task.
4
Remove the link
To remove the milestone association, click the × button next to the current milestone name.
The Tests button only appears when Test Management is enabled for the space. If you do not see it, ask your space administrator to enable the Test Management module.
Using milestones as quality gates
Before shipping a release, open the milestone and check:- Is the aggregate pass rate at or above your team’s target (for example, 95%)?
- Are there any CRITICAL priority failures remaining?
- Are there BLOCKED cases that indicate unresolved environment issues?
