When a test type is created and you do not need it anymore or is an undesired one, please see below how to remove it:

Step-by-step guide

To remove a test type, please go to Jira administration >> Issues >> Custom Fields >> search Test Type

Then choose "Edit Options"


And delete the type you do not want.



In Jira's administration, you may add other values for the "Test Type" custom field (see list below). For example, you may want to differentiate automated tests that may exist simultaneously in a project.

However, internally they will and must be handled as one of the two default Test Types for automated tests: "Cucumber" or "Generic".

Test Type custom field possible values

Internally will be handled as Test Type...

"Cucumber", "Automated[Cucumber]", "Gherkin", "Behave", "SpecFlow", "Behat"Cucumber
"Generic", "Automated[Generic]"Generic


Note: "Test Type" custom field values not shown above are not supported.
