Create and Manage Quality Module Test Groups

Background

Test Groups provide the ability to group similar tests together for easy search, filtering and reporting. Groups can be anything the user decides such as tests for soil, asphalt, concrete etc.

Example Groups have been provided at the bottom for:-

  • Department of Planning, Transport & Infrastructure
  • Main Roads Western Australia
  • Roads & Maritime Services
  • Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads
  • Victoria Roads

Process

1) Click Quality

2) Under heading Tests click Test Groups,
