Bulk Update

You can edit test cycles of a particular folder in bulk. It is useful when a bunch of test cycles is identified to be marked identical.

The feature provides a quick way to update test cycles in bulk at a time instead of opening the test cycles one by one.

You can edit test cycles in bulk. It is useful when a bunch of test cycles are identified to be marked identical.

The feature provides a quick way to update test cycles in bulk at a time instead of opening the test cycles and edit them one by one.

Steps:

  1. Select test cycles that you want to edit.

  • Selection of Multiple entities at a time: To select entities within a range on the current page, select the first entity’s check box and then select the last entity’s check box and simultaneously hold the SHIFT key of the keyboard. All the entities between these two entities will get auto-selected.

  • Select All:

→ Select all records on the current page:

Clicking on the check box in the column header selects all the records on the current page only.

An alternate way is to open the check box drop-down and select Current Page.

→ Select all records across all pages:

Open the check box drop-down and select the Across All Pages option.

Once you select the test cycles that you want to edit, the options for bulk operation become visible on the screen.

2. Click on the Update option.

The Update screen opens.

3. Enter/select the value in the fields and click Update.

For the multi-select drop-down field and check box, two options are available to update the test case:

  • Replace all with: If selected, it will replace the older field values with the latest ones. For example, field value "A" is already there. Now "B" and "C" are added. The updated field value is "B", "C".

  • Append to existing: If selected, the new value will be appended on the list keeping the older value unchanged. For example, field value "A" is already there. Now "B" and "C" are added. The updated field value is "A", "B", "C".

For bulk update using the “Sprint” option, a list of boards across the Jira instance is available to choose from i.e. Active/Closed/Future.
