# Configuring and Executing Test Case

Configuring and executing test cases in Avo Assure requires a streamlined approach to ensure efficient test outcomes. As an initial step, you must configure the execution list with the appropriate settings, including test case selection, integration preferences, and defect management options. After the configuration is complete, you can proceed with executing the test cases, allowing Avo Assure to generate detailed reports. 

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

1. Navigate to **Execution** tab, **Create Execution List**.
