Selecting a Jira Xray issue to export test results

After you configure the Xray integration on Test , you can select a Jira Xray issue in Jira or create a new issue in Jira to export the test results. The test results are exported to the selected issue after the tests run on Test. You can then view and track the test results in your Jira project.

You must have completed the following tasks:

  • Ensured that you are assigned a role as a Project Owner or Tester in the project. See Managing access to the server projects.

  • Configured the Xray integration by using the Xray API keys that are generated for your username. See Configuring the Xray integration.

  • Ensured that the Execute test asset dialog is displayed and you have configured the other settings for a test run in Test.

When you configure a test run in Test, you can select a Jira issue as the location where you want the test results to be exported. After the test is run, the results are exported to the Jira issue. You can then view and track the test results in the Jira issue from your project in Jira.

  1. Click the RESULTS tab in the Execute test asset dialog.
    The RESULTS tab is displayed.
    Note: The Export report options field is enabled only if you configured the Xray integration with the Xray API keys that are generated for your username in Jira.
  2. Perform the actions listed in the following table to select an option to export the test results:
