Link Jira Story or Issue to Existing Test Cycles
Users can link existing test cycles to a Jira story. Once the test cycle is associated, it automatically gets linked to the test cases underneath the story.
Perform the following steps to link a Jira story or issue to existing test cycles:
Navigate to the Jira issue detail page.
Under the Test Case/Acceptance Criteria panel, click the ellipsis (...) icon and select Link Story to Existing Test Cycle.
The Link Story to Existing Test Cycle screen opens. It displays the test cycles you created in QMetry Test Management for Jira.
Filter Test Cycles
A. You can browse test cycles as per the test cycle folder in the tree. It will help you narrow down the test cycle search.
B. If the test cycle list is long, apply filters to the list. You can filter records through search. You can search a particular test cycle by "Issue Key" or “Summary” through the search box.
C. There are more options like Labels, Fix Versions, Sprint, Components, Status, Priority, and so on to narrow down the search.
Note
A maximum of ten filters, including system and custom fields, can be selected at a time.
Select the test cycle(s) that you want to link with the story.
Link: Select the test cycle you want to add to the Jira issue and click on the Link button. Once test cycles are linked, the Link Story to Existing Test Cycle screen still remains open to let you link further test cycles.
Link & Close: You can link the selected test cycle with the story and close the pop-up. Select the test cycle to be linked with the story and click on the Link & Close button.
You can check the Story linking progress and status in the Notifications section.
The test cycle is added to all the test cases on the Jira issue page.
Select the Executions tab under the test case to see the associated test cycles.
Now Sync stories in the Test Cases tab of the test cycle.
When you add a Jira issue to a test cycle, all the test cases associated with that Jira issue are automatically linked to the test cycle.
You can view the test cases linked to the test cycle in the Test Cases tab of the test cycle detail page.
You can view the stories to which the test cycle is linked in Jira in the Story tab of the test cycle detail page.
