Create Team

In the context of test cases and project management, creating a team means forming a group of users within a project who will collaborate on testing activities. This team is responsible for tasks such as creating, reviewing, managing, and executing test cases. It helps organize project participants, assign responsibilities clearly, control access to test resources, and ensure that the right people are involved in the testing process.

Essentially, a team acts as a structured unit within a project to manage testing work efficiently in ZeuZ.

Why it matters / Use Cases:​

  • Organizes project members efficiently by grouping users who work on the same testing activities.
  • Improves collaboration by allowing testers, developers, and managers to work together within a defined team.
  • Controls access to project resources, ensuring only selected members can participate in specific testing tasks.
  • Simplifies test case management and supports structured project management by assigning test creation and execution responsibilities to specific teams and separating teams for different modules, releases, or applications
  • Enables secure integrations through the optional Public Key, which can be used for authentication or external system connections.
  • Makes team administration easier by allowing quick selection or removal of members from the team.

Prerequisites​

  • Access to ZeuZ Server with permissions for Admin → Team & Projects → Create Team.
  • A Team Name must be prepared, as it is a required field when creating a team.
  • Users must already exist in the system so they can be searched and added from the Members list.
  • The user should know which members need to be included in the team before submitting the team creation form.
