Following are the steps to create a Test Run −

Step 1 − To create a new Test Run, go to the Test Runs section. Scroll down and click the New Test Run button present on the bottom right side as shown in the following screenshot.

It will open a New Test run page that has 3 sections − Add Details, Select Test Plan, and Add test suites.

Step 2 − In the Add details section, enter the Test Run name and assign it to yourself.

Step 3 − In the Select test plan section, choose a test plan so that these test runs will be associated with the test plan. Once association is made, user can see these test suites in the test plan section as well. And, you can run test cases in the test plan section too.
