Manual
(default)
Steps
2
Generic
Unstructured
3
Cucumber
Gherkin
Tip
The default Test Type will be used when a Test issue is created. After creating the issue, you can edit the Test Type.
UI Step
Create new test types
You may check with your team if they need extra test types.
To create a new Test Type, go to the Add New Test Type section at the bottom of the page, fill out the following fields, and then press Add:
Option: the name for the Test Type option
Kind: the nature of the Test Type (e.g., Steps, Unstructured, Gherkin)
Tip
You can change the order of test types, and also set one as default.
Tip
Each project can use its own Test Types and you can configure them at a project-level. By default, each project inherits the globally-defined Test Types but you can change that.
To use project-level settings, go to Project Settings > Xray Settings > Test Types and then Enable Project Settings at the top of the page.
You can create new Test Types, or even allow your project administrator , to do so.
