Manage Dashboards

Dashboards are boards that can be accessed by Users, Leads, Managers, and Administrators. These boards can be configured by their creators to show a small or large amount of testing data generated by the testing activities done in other modules such as Requirements, Test Repository, Test Planning, Test Execution, etc.

To access the area to manage your dashboards, simply select the Dashboards menu at the top and then Manage Dashboards.

You will then be taken to a page that shows all your current dashboards. From here you can edit existing dashboards or create new ones.
