Test Case Versioning
Starting December 5, 2025 (QMetry Test Management for Jira v4.15.1), the QMetry Test Management for Jira documentation moved from its location on Atlassian to a dedicated, standalone QMetry Test Management for Jira documentation page. For the latest updates, refer to Test Case Versioning.
QMetry allows you to use different versions of a test case for testing and manage them at a time. Audit Logs display the audit history of test case changes. You can compare different versions of a test case for audit purposes.
For example, a user may realize during the editing of the test case that both the old and the new versions of the test case are valid, and separate test cases. The user may also create a test case and use it as a template to create new test cases without the bother of copying all the separate steps. This is particularly useful when testers are developing new test cases on the fly.
The Version Control feature works according to QMetry Permissions for Project.
Creating a New Version of Test Case
1. Go to the test case detail page for which you want to create a new version.
2. Click New Version.
The Create New Version screen opens.
You can add or edit the required details for the test case. If a custom field is marked as mandatory in Configuration, you can enter values for such mandatory fields here and proceed towards test case creation.
Copy Linked Stories of the Previous Version to the Newer Version: If the option is selected, the new version of the test case will be linked to stories from the previous version. The previous version of the test case will remain linked to those stories.
3. Click Create to create a new version with details, steps, and attachments.
You can see the version drop-down list now shows the version number incremented by 1.
Viewing Version-wise Details
You can create versions of a test case at the time of editing the test case. All the available versions of a test case are listed at the top of the test case details page.
By default latest version is displayed on the test case detail page.
To view the details of a particular version, select the version from the drop-down list. The screen populates details for that version in the detail view. This way, you can refer to multiple versions of a test case.
The Versions drop-down list shows existing versions of the test case. You can select a version to view the details of that version.
