Cumulative sum based on date range from slicer

I am new to DAX formulas. I have spent ample amount of time to achieve my desired result, but I am not able to find solution.

I have TestDetails table and Date table. Below are details of contents in these 2 tables:

TestId

ReleaseDate

Department

    

Test1

11/1/2018

Date

StartDate

I am trying to calculate no of test cases based on ReleaseDate between StartDate and EndDate. User can select date any date range using slicer on PowerBI dashboard. If user selects Department also, then no of test cases should be calculated based on department selected and between StartDate and EndDate.

The sample result I am expecting is as below:

Case 1

Selected date from date slicer is 11/1/2018 and all department

 

 

Date

TestReleaseCount

 

11/1/2018

19

Average

 

19

   

Case 2

Selected date from date slicer is 11/1/2018 and "A" department from Department Slicer

 

 

Date

TestReleaseCount

 

11/1/2018

10

Average

 

10

   
   

Case 3

Selected date range from date slicer is 11/1/2018 to 11/4/2018 and all department

 

 

Date

TestReleaseCount

 

11/1/2018

19

 

11/2/2018

17

 

11/3/2018

14

 

11/4/2018

11

Average

 

15.25

   

case 4

Selected date range from date slicer is 11/1/2018 to 11/4/2018 and "A" department from date slicer

 

 

Date

TestReleaseCount

 

11/1/2018

10

 

11/2/2018

11

 

11/3/2018

9

 

11/4/2018

8

Average

 

9.5

 

I came up with below formula, but it is not giving me desired result:

VAR abc = SELECTEDVALUE(TestDetails[Department], "ALL")

CALCULATE(COUNT(TestDetails[TESTID]),

    FILTER(ALL(TestDetails), (TestDetails[Department] = abc)

    && (TestDetails[ReleaseDate]>=Min(Date[StartDate]))

    && (TestDetails[ReleaseDate]<=Max(Date[EndDate]))

 )

)

 

Please help.

    Give this a shot for the count:

     

    TestReleaseCount = 
VAR MinDate = MIN(DateTable[Date])
VAR MaxDate = MAX(DateTable[Date])
VAR DateList = 1
RETURN
CALCULATE(
    COUNT(TestDetails[TestId]),
    FILTER(
        ALL(DateTable[Date]),
        DateTable[Date] <= LOOKUPVALUE(DateTable[EndDate], DateTable[Date], MaxDate) &&
        DateTable[Date] >= LOOKUPVALUE(DateTable[StartDate], DateTable[Date], MinDate)
    )
)

    If you want the average, then you can do that with another measure that references the above:

     

    Avg = AVERAGEX(VALUES(DateTable[Date]), [TestReleaseCount])

    Hi prl

    For Case1 and Case2, you could create measures as below

    min_selected = MIN('Date table'[StartDate])

max_selected = MAX('Date table'[EndDate])

Measure =
CALCULATE (
    COUNT ( TestDetails[TestId] ),
    FILTER (
        ALLSELECTED ( TestDetails ),
        [ReleaseDate] >= [min_selected]
            && [ReleaseDate] <= [max_selected]
    )
)

     

    For Case3 and Case4, it is a bit complex, i'm working on this and will update as soon as possible.

     

    Best Regards

    Maggie

      For case 1 and 2 the provided solution works fine. Thank you! 

      Looking forward to solution for case 3 and case 4.
