The following table describes the difference between Import and Re-import.
Sr. No. | Component | Import | Re-import |
1 | Definition | Import is creation of test assets for the first time. Import always creates version 1. | Re-import is bulk-modification of already created test assets. This saves time where bulk edit feature is not available. For requirements and test cases, re-importing will increase the existing version of requirements/test cases by 1. |

3 | What can be imported? | 1. Requirements 2. Test Cases 3. Issues | 1. Requirements 2. Test Cases 3. Test Suites - Only Executions Status |
