MS Teams

Connecting Microsoft Teams to Arcus by Testsigma sends notifications about test activity into your Teams channels. You choose which events trigger a notification, and edit the message each one uses.

Prerequisites

• Access to an MS Teams workspace.
• The Microsoft Teams integration connected. Click Setup Integration next to Microsoft Teams under Settings > Integrations.

Note

Authorize the integration with a separate Microsoft account used only for setup. Because of a limitation in Microsoft Teams, the account that authorizes the integration does not receive notifications.

Notification events

You configure notifications one event at a time. Turn each event on or off as needed.

• Test Run Assigned: a test run is assigned to a user.
• Test Case Waiting on Review: a test case is submitted for review.
• Test Case Approved: a test case is approved.
