Link tests to issues

When a test fails, the fix usually happens in the Tracker. Create the issue from the test result, and the issue and the result stay linked: the developer sees which test found the bug, and the tester can follow the fix.

Create an issue from a failed result

1. Open the failed result, for example from the run’s list.
2. Click ⋯ and choose New related issue.
3. Fill in the issue as usual: title, description, priority and assignee. The issue is marked as related to the result.
4. Click Create issue.

You can do the same from a test case or a test suite, through their ⋯ menus or by right-clicking them in a list.

Choose where new issues go

Each test project can send its related issues to a Tracker project of your choice.

1. Hover the test project in the navigator, click ⋯ and choose Configure related issue default projects.
2. Pick the Tracker project, or No project.
3. Click Ok.

New related issues from that project’s suites, cases and results then start in the chosen Tracker project. Workspace owners can see every such rule in Settings › Related issues.

Link to other work

Add relation in the same menus links a suite, case or result to any other item, such as an existing issue or a document. The link shows on both items.

Tip

Link a regression case to the issue it guards against. When the issue comes back, the team knows which test to run. See Sub-issues and relations for how links show on issues.
