Using Fields

You can classify your tests in order to make it easier to organize & search them. 

JIRA has many options to classify your issues using system fields or event create your own. Here some examples:

• use labels to tag your Tests (or your Test Sets); if you start having many testers and your project grows, having a well-defined list of labels may help
• use the priority field, so you can distinguish between tests
• assign the Test to the proper component
• Ask your JIRA Administrator to create your own custom fields

Using Test Sets

Xray gives you a new JIRA issue Type, named Test Set that enables you to create flat lists of tests.

Organize Tests in Test Sets

• group tests in as many Test Sets as it makes sense to you, either because they're testing the same feature or the same UI component, or if they exercise the most critical use cases
• classify your Test Sets, similarly to what you did for Tests

Organize Tests for regression testing

• you can create a Test Set for this purpose and add a specific label to it (e.g., "regression"), and then you test for requirements of previous versions
• you can create a "regression Test Set" for each version by cloning the previous version regression test set and add more tests
