# Configuring and Executing Test case

Configuring and Executing Test cases in Avo Assure with Xray Integration follows a structured approach to ensure smooth execution and accurate results. As the first step, the user needs to set up the execution list with the required settings, including Test case selection, Integration options, and defect management preferences. Once the configuration is done, the user can run the Test cases, and it will generate detailed reports.

**To configure and execute Test cases, perform the following actions:**

1. Create **Execution List** in **Execution** tab.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** To create execution list, refer to [Working with Execution section](/avo-assure/working-with-the-avo-assure-platform/create-and-execute-tests-with-design-studio/working-with-execution-section.md)
{% endhint %}

2. Expand **Test Management tool** option and select **Xray** as Test management tool and Xray popup window will appear.
