Issue TypeDescription
TestA test case. It may either be manual or automated, composed of multiple steps, actions and expected results.
Test PlanA "formal" plan of the tests intended to be executed for a given version or sprint.
Test SetA group of tests, organized in some logical way.
Test ExecutionAn assignable, "schedulable" task to execute one or more tests for a given version/revision along with its results.
Pre-ConditionInitial conditions that must be assured before the execution of the Test's own steps. A Pre-Condition may be used by multiple Tests.
Sub-Test Execution

A Sub-Test Execution has the same functionalities as the Test Execution issue type. The difference between them is that the Sub-Test Execution is a sub-Task and can be created in a requirement's context. Creating a Test Execution as a sub-task from within the requirement issue screen will provide the user the ability to track executions in the Agile board.

Add Xray issue types to your

schemes

Issue Type Scheme

Your team will need to create all the Xray issues inside the project you are enabling to use Xray. 

In order for this to happen, you need to make  Xray issue Types available in your "Issue Type Schemes" and in your "Issue type Screen Schemes". .


You may want to include Xray issue Types ( such as Test, Test Plan, Test Set, Test execution) to your already created  Issue Type Schemes. This will enable you to use Xray in existent projects that are currently using those schemes.

  1. Go to JIRA Administration > Issues > Issue Type Scheme and select the Issue Type Scheme you want to add Xray Issue Types. 
  2. Drag-and-drop Xray Issue Types: Test, Test Plan, Test Set, Test Execution to Issue Types for Current Scheme.

Tip

Your team does not have to use all Issue Types at their project. If you want to go for a simple approach you might only use - Test, Test Plan & Test Execution.

UI Step

Add Xray issue types to your Issue Type Screen Scheme

Your Xray Issue Types need to have the correct custom fields available. In order to do this, you will use the regular Jira setting - Screens. 

In order to make this possible, you need to associate each issue type with the correct screen inside your "Issue Type Screen Scheme". This will enable you to use Xray in existent projects that are currently using those schemes


  1. Go to JIRA Administration > Issues > Issue Type Screen Scheme and select the Issue Type Screen
  2. Click on "Associate an Issue Type with Screen Scheme"

  1. Select Test for Issue type and Default Xray Test Screen Scheme for the Screen Scheme.

  2. Repeat this action for Pre-Condition with Default Xray Pre-Condition Screen Scheme, Test Plan with Default Xray Test Plan Screen Scheme, Test Execution with Default Xray Test Execution Screen Scheme, and Test Set with Default Xray Test Set Screen Scheme.


The final result will be something like this for the Xray Issue Types.
