The Testing Board is a project page which aims to track and manage all activities related to Testing. Currently, the board provides access to the Test Repository and the Test Plans in the Testing Board. In future releases of Xray, we plan to include other features on this page such as Executions and Test Runs. The main goal of the Testing Board is to provide a central hub for accessing Xray thus abstracting users from issues whenever possible.

The Testing Board menu can be accessed by a navigation drawer. From here, you can access the following items:


Some of the items above will redirect the user to the global context in Jira (outside the project). These include the Getting Started page, Reports, and Test Case Importer. This happens because these pages are global pages and not project pages. 


The last project page selected will be stored in user preferences so that when the user again accesses the Testing Board, they can continue with the work they were doing.


The Testing Board will be available in projects with Xray issue types or issue types that are coverable by Xray.
If you have a project that had these characteristics and no longer does and do not wish it to have the Testing Board menu item in it, you can disable it in the Xray Settings of the respective project.
