For critical test assets in your project, you’ll always want to stay on top of all of the updates the team gives on the test assets. Watching helps you stay connected to that asset from the point of authoring all the way to it - events/updates/versions/executions. Keep in mind that watching can generate a lot of email traffic though, so be specific in the issues you choose to watch.

Points:

1. Email notifications for any QMetry assets like requirements, test cases, test suites, etc., are sent to the users who appear as the “Watchers“ of those assets.

• Users who create the assets or users who are added as an owner in the assets get automatically added to the “Watchers“ list.
• To ensure that the creator and owner both get notifications if some other team members update their test cases the email notifications are sent to watchers.
• To stop receiving the emails, users can remove themselves from the Watcher list.

2. Email notifications are also sent to users/roles or email addresses that are specified under the Customization > Notifications section.

• Removing users, roles, or email addresses from the events in this section stops these email notifications.
• If the users still appear under “Watchers“ as in point 1, they would continue to receive email notifications when someone updates the assets.

3.When users click the unsubscribe link in the email received for an asset update, they are removed from the “Watchers” list of that specific asset. The users still continue to be watchers on other assets and will receive notifications as mentioned in point 1 for other asset updates.

Watch an Issue

1. Open the detail page of the test asset that you want to watch.
2. Click on the Start watching button to instantly become a watcher of the issue.
3. An email notification will be sent to all the watchers as soon as the asset is updated.
4. Only active users will receive email notifications.
