Configure Xray Issue Types in your project

In order to configure Xray issue types with a project, you must know if you are in a nextteam-genmanaged project or in a classic project company-managed project. The configuration steps for Xray issue types will be different for each kind of project.

Company-Managed Project (old Classic Project)

Tests, along with other entities, are abstracted as Jira Issue Types. Thus, you need to add them to the Issue Type Scheme used by your project. 

...

  1. Edit the Issue Type Scheme (be aware of the projects using it):

If this is the case, after configuring it, simply access a page containing Xray information, such as an Xray issue of the given project or Xray Settings of that same project and then refresh the page.

Team-Managed Project (old Next-Gen

...

Project)

Within nextteam-gen managed projects, you first need to create the necessary issue types manually.

  1. In the Nextteam-Gen project managed project settings, navigate to Issue Types and press Add Issue Type. Specify a name, description and icon to for the new issue type. For simplicity, you can choose the same issue type names as the default global Xray issue types. Repeat these steps for all other necessary Xray entities such as: Test, Precondition, Test Set, Test Plan and Test Execution. E. Ex: g. Creating the Test issue type:

Now you should be able to start creating Xray entities within your nextteam-genmanaged project. These issue types will behave exactly like the global Xray issue types that are installed by Xray.

...

  1.  In the Test Coverage section, define the Covered Issue Types (i.e., the testable entities such as the typical requirements, user stories, epics). Drag the ones you want from the Available Issue Types column (e.g., Epic, Story) to the Covered Issue Types column. Click Save.

2. In the Defect Mapping section, define the Covered Issue Types (i.e., the testable entities). Drag the ones you want from the Available Issue Types column (e.g., Story, Epic) to the Defect Issue Types. Click Save.
