Concerning Xray, you can have different approaches to project organization and they will need different configurations efforts. 



UI Steps
UI Step

Keep requirements, tests and defect in the same project - The All-in-One approach


You can use a single project to manage your Requirements and Defects, Test-related issues as well as all your Test Executions.

To enable this approach you need to perform the following actions as admin:




Create Project

(error)

You may not need to create a new project. 

You can simply add Xray Types to our existing project

Enabling Requirement Coverage(tick)
Enabling Xray Issue Types(tick)
Project TypesSingle project that is a Requirement Project & a Test Project at the same time
UI Step

Don't mix my Requirements and Defects with Tests

If you already have a Jira project for managing Requirements and Defects and don't want to have any tests nor executions in this project, you can create a separate companion project just for testing purposes.

To enable this approach you need to perform the following actions as admin:



Create Project

Create a Project for Testing Purposes

Enabling Requirement Coverage(tick) At Requirement Project 
Enabling Xray Issue Types(tick) At Testing Project
Project Types

1 Requirement Project

1 Testing Project

UI Step

Dedicated repository for Tests

Another common use case for Xray is to have a dedicated project for Test (and Pre-Condition and Test Set) issues. Test Executions are the responsibility of other project(s). This separation allows to manage permissions more effectively, so maybe only a few testers have permission to write tests and others only have permission to execute.

Of course, this use case can also be combined with the previous one by having separate projects for managing Requirements and Defects.

To enable this approach you need to perform the following actions as admin:



Create Project

Create 1 Project with Tests

Create 1 Project with Test Executions

Enabling Xray Issue Types(tick) At 2 Testing Projects
