The main goal for this version was to provide a set of features and improvements to support the basics of Risk-Based Testing. This testing strategy allows organizations to focus testing and prioritize existing tests based on the assessed risk level, which depends on the likelihood and impact of failure. As always, we made it flexible so you can implement RBT the way you need, using Jira built-in capabilities or by taking advantage of some existing apps that offer Risk Management or customization capabilities. 

As part of our continuous improvement, more performance improvements have also been included in this version.

Downgrading from Xray 3.4.x to a version less than 3.2.0 implies that you must perform a re-index afterwards. This is because from Xray 3.2.0 onwards, the content and format of what Xray indexes has changed.

Risk-Based Testing


Column

Xray v3.4 adds a set of features that enable the basics of Risk-Based Testing (RBT); more about these enabling features ahead.

As always, we made it flexible so you can implement RBT the way you want. You may need to setup some custom fields related with RBT: for that, you may use Jira built-in capabilities or use a customization app to help you out. If you're using a "compatible" Risk Management related app,  you may also take advantage of it.

To make it simple, we've included detailed setup instructions in our documentation.
