Your XML, as posted, isn't usable. Please don't fail to verify that the data you post is in usable format.

Is a simple case such as this, this should be all you need:

$xml = @"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<testsuites>
  <testsuite name="QIS - Smoke Testing Automation Script.Smoke Test Suite" time="113.132" tests="24" failures="0" errors="0" package="QIS - Smoke Testing Automation Script" id="1">
  </testsuite>
</testsuites>
"@
$x = [xml]$xml
$x.testsuites.testsuite.tests
$x.testsuites.testsuite.failures
