1. Creating a Test Cycle and linking it to automated tests
We have executed automated tests by using "Test Scheduler" linking runs to a Test Cycle. Now, we will link a Test Cycle to the same automated tests, while scheduling the Test using "Test Runner & Test Driver of Business Tests (which is a part of QaCONNECT REST API)
While we execute tests, as part of the training exercises, we will use the below naming convention for identifying each set of tests.
Keyword: "Smoke" as we deem the tests we run a for sanity purpose

Keyword: "Smoke" as we deem the tests we run a for sanity purpose
Text to append: Given that we will execute different test cycles on the same day, and for the ease of identifying these quickly, we will use HH (for hour) and MM (for mins) to append to the keyword.
2. Practice: Update the Test Cycle Identifier Details:
- Click "Menu" and Navigate to the "Data Files"

- Update Planned start time and Planned End time
- Click Save and then click "Save & Exit" the Data File
