Here are some updates from the past month
Product
Drill Down from Dashboards to Focused Instance Data
You can now click on dashboard items such as bar charts, pie charts, or distribution tables to explore specific instance data. When you select a data slice, for example, all ‘Passed’ instances for a specific tester, you’ll be taken to the Instances View in the Test Sets & Runs module, automatically filtered to match the data you clicked.
Milestone-Based Tracking Enhancements
We’ve added two improvements to help you track releases more efficiently with milestones:
- Tab-Level Dashboard Filters by Milestone – Filter an entire dashboard tab by milestone to focus on a specific release and its progress at a glance.
- Multi-Level Auto Filters – Create auto filters based on milestones and combine them with additional criteria like testing status or assignee, for more granular reporting.
These enhancements make it easier to stay on top of release progress and organize your views around what matters most.
Tab-Level Filters Now Available in External Dashboards
When sharing dashboards externally with stakeholders outside PractiTest, they can now use tab-level filters. This allows non-PractiTest users to filter dashboard data by fields such as milestone or assignee, giving them more control and clarity without needing a PractiTest account.
