Estimated Less Actual Duration

updated by Catch Admin (Apr 02, 2013)

Field: EstimatedLessActualDuration

Description

Estimated Less Actual Duration is a calculated field representing the difference between the estimated time and the actual time it took to execute the script.

Examples

Two formats are supported:

The first allows you to provide a date in days, hours, minutes and seconds.

days.hours:minutes: seconds

1 day, 3 hours, 15 min can be written as follows:

EstimatedLessActualDuration = "1.03:15:00"

The second format allows you provide a more readable date specifying optional values for weeks, days, hours & minutes.

1 week, 2 days, 1 hour, 30 minutes can be written as follows:

EstimatedLessActualDuration = "1 week, 2 days, 1 hour, 30 minutes"

Or in the shorthand form (familiar to Jira/JQL users):

EstimatedLessActualDuration = "1w 2d 1h 30m"

To find all runs where the the estimated less actual duration is within a range e.g.( 1-4 days):

EstimatedLessActualDuration >= "1 day" AND EstimatedLessActualDuration <= "4 days"

Alternatively, you can use the short hand "range" syntax:

EstimatedLessActualDuration IN ["1 day", "4 days"]

Find all runs where the actual duration has exceeded the estimated duration (i.e. the value is a negative number of minutes, hours, days):

EstimatedLessActualDuration < "1m"

Note: Because dates can contain hours, minutes and second components, testing for date equality may not match as you would expect, It is suggested that you use Date Ranges for matching values where you are not sure of the exact time component.
