Add Tests to a Test Plan using the Issue Picker Dialog

Aside from adding Tests to the Test Plan using the issue create screen, you can also do it in the Test issue page or directly in the tests section of the Test Plan issue page, as follows.

 Click Add.

Click the Tests... option to open the Issue Picker Dialog.

- Note that if you choose Test Sets, you are not actually adding Test Set(s); instead, you are adding the Tests that belong to that Test Set(s).


Open the Search tab.

How to use the Issue Picker Dialog

Below is an example of how to add tests, using some of the features available in the Search tab.

For more information, please visit the Issue Picker Dialog detailed overview.

Configure the search - in this case we will use JQL functionality from the Issue picker dialog.



 Check the tests you wish to add from the listed results.

 Add tests by pressing "Add selected."

The issues will then appear in the list of test in the plan.




Reorder Tests

Ranking of Tests within the Test Plan can be done in two ways: directly in the Test Plan issue screen (if Hierarchical Test Oganization is disabled) or in the Test Plan Board (if Hierarchical Test Organization is enabled). This means you can rank Tests, whether you use hierarchies or not.

If you are using Hierarchical Test Organization, there is a course that will detail how to organize tests.
