Labels

This is a Label's list. The Labels field is a system defined field in modules like Requirement and Test Case. The field is most often used for a major classification of a product or service. Some organizations use “Module”, "Component" and "Product" in place of Label.

Creating Labels

Expand Projects on the side bar and select Labels.

Click on the "+" symbol at top right corner.

It displays fields inline to add a new label.

Enter Alias (i.e. the name that will be displayed) and Name of Label and click Save.

The Labels list appears on the Create screen for Requirement and Test Case.

Go to the respective modules and open detail page. Check the Label(s) drop-down with values you entered above.

Sharing Labels

QTM allows the sharing of Labels to multiple projects. Users can also utilize the same Label values for other projects. It allows users to easily copy the Label values from a source project to multiple destination projects, which eliminates the need for manual duplication and ensures consistency across projects sharing the same Labels.

The events of Copy and Import of Labels are also logged in the Audit Log Report.

Use Case: The project admin wants to reuse the existing Label values of one project in other multiple projects so that they do not have to manually add Label values in each project and maintain them separately.

Users can copy and import Labels.

→ Required Permissions: For creating/modifying the Label values the user should have the following permissions:
