Add Tests and Test Sets

While there is a close relationship between Test Plans and Test Execution, the relation between Test and Tests Sets is not that close but you still have a easy way to add Test Sets to a

Plan

.

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.

 ClickClick Add.

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

- Note Choose to add either Tests or Test Sets. 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).

Test Order

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, you can and have to do the ranking within the Test Plan Board. More info here.
