Problem
If you encounter the error message: "Test precondition(s) have mismatched Test type" when using the Test Case Importer with a CSV file that contains Preconditions, it may be due to the format of the data.
In the CSV, you might see the preconditions listed under the Precondition column like this:
The Preconditions that have Issue ID 1 and 2 are showing under the Precondition Column between Quotation Marks:
“1;2”
When the CSV file is processed by the Test Case Importer, these quotation marks cause the error, indicating that the Precondition information does not match the Test Type.
Solution
To resolve this issue, remove the quotation marks from the Precondition column.
For example, it should look like this:
Removing the quotation marks allows the CSV to be imported correctly, eliminating the error.
