Returns a List of Test issues associated with the input Test Execution issues from P1 optionally filtered by the current test run status for each Test issue.

Parameter P1 can either be a single Test Execution issue key, an ID or a saved filter containing multiple Test Execution issues.

Possible Test Run Status values are: PASS, FAIL, EXECUTING, ABORTED, TODO and all custom statuses.

P3 corresponds to the user assigned to execute the Test Run, while P5 corresponds to the one who actually executed it. For analyzing the joint values of all Test Run Assignees, "" should be used. For taking into account the Test Runs without any Assignee, then "__NULL__" should be used.

If you pass true as the value for P4, the query returns all Tests from a particular set of Test Executions where no Defects were created.

requirements

P1 - Status list separated by "|"(pipe)

P2 - Project (Optional)

P3 - Version to calculate requirement status (Optional)

P4 - Test Environment (Optional)

P5 - Flat (Optional)

P6 - ToDate (Optional)

P7 - Saved Filter (Optional)


Returns a list of Requirement Issues with the provided coverage status.

Please provide Project parameter (P2) to restrict the requirements to the specified project.


If analyzing on a specific version, then the Project and Version parameters must be filled.


Optional filters include:

Test Environment, for taking into account the Test Executions made for that environment. For analyzing the joint values of all environments, "" should be used. For taking into account the Test Executions without any Test Environment assigned, then "__NULL__" should be used.

Flat that indicates whether all Requirements (not only parents) should be searched. If "Flat" is not provided, the default value is 'false'.

ToDate considers only those requirements executions before a specific date/time (the date literal must follow the ISO8601 format).

Saved Filters considers only requirements from that specific filter.

(1)
issue in requirements('OK','Calculator')


Please note

Although optional, it is highly recommended to specify the Project parameter as means to define the project having the requirments and thus reduce the amount of issues that will be processed/returned. Otherwise, requirements from all JIRA projects will be processed, which possibly is something that you don't want or need at all.

Custom Fields


Xray also provides custom fields to allow more refined queries when searching for issues.


JQL FunctionIssue TypeDescriptionExample

Test Type

TestThe Test type: Manual; Cucumber; Generic
issuetype = 'Test' 
   and "Test Type" = "Manual"

TestRunStatus

Test

This is a calculated custom field that provides the latest Test Run status based on the current "Test Run Status Version Strategy" option configured in the Xray administration.


Syntax:  TestRunStatus = "[Group (version or TestPlan)] - [Status] environment:[environment]"

Only the Status is mandatory; if only the status is provided, Xray will assume you are searching for the latest execution

Xray will lookup for all Tests with Status in that particular version and environment.

Read more about Status and environments.

Test Run Status

The latest Test Run Status is calculated based on the latest final Test Run (i.e., latest finish date) or, in case there are no final Test Runs, the latest non-final Test Run (i.e., latest start date). Please see the custom fields preferences page.


For consistent results when searching for TestPlan results, filter with the testPlanTests function.

issuetype = 'Test' 
   and TestRunStatus in ("FAIL", "ABORTED")

_

issuetype = 'Test' 
and TestRunStatus = "PASS"

_

issue in testPlanTests("TESTPLAN-123")
and TestRunStatus = "TESTPLAN-123 - PASS"

_

issue in testPlanTests("TESTPLAN-123")
   and TestRunStatus = "TESTPLAN-123 - TODO"

_

issuetype = 'Test' 
   and TestRunStatus = "FAIL environment:Android"
          
-
issuetype = 'Test' 
   and TestRunStatus = "v3.0 - PASS environment:Android"

_

issue in testPlanTests("TESTPLAN-123")
   and TestRunStatus = "TESTPLAN-123 - PASS environment:Android"

Requirement Status

Requirement

This is a calculated custom field that provides the requirement coverage status.

Possible status values are:

OK - All tests passed the requirement

NOK - At least one test failed

NOTRUN - At least one test did not run

UNCOVERED - The requirements is not associated with tests

testTestExecutions 


Syntax: "Requirement Status" = "[Group (version or TestPlan)] - [Status] environment:[environment]"

Only the Status is mandatory; if only the status is provided, Xray will assume you are searching for the latest execution

Xray will lookup for all Requirements with Status in that particular version and environment.

Read more about  Status and environments.


Requirement Coverage

For more information, please check out our page dedicated to requirements coverage.

If the Requirements Coverage Strategy depends on the version, then you must also include the actual version name and the status when you do the search. The syntax: "[version name] - [status]"



issuetype = 'New Feature' 
   and "Requirement Status" = "OK"
_
issuetype = 'New Feature' 
   and "Requirement Status" in ("NOTRUN", "UNCOVERED")

_

issuetype = 'New Feature' 
and "Requirement Status" = "v1.0 - OK"
-
issuetype = 'New Feature' 
   and "Requirement Status" = "v1.0 - OK environment:Android"

Steps Count

TestThe number of Steps in a Manual Test
issuetype = 'Test' 
   and "Steps Count" = 3

Manual Test Steps

TestFind Tests by text present in the Manual Test Steps fields
issuetype = 'Test' 
   and "Manual Test Steps" ~ "Login with user administrator"



The Test Set Status and Test Plan Status custom fields, mentioned in Custom Fields, are not queryable.
