Introduction

Users should have the “Test Plan Create” permission for the project to be able to create a test plan in the QMetry Test Management for Jira app.

Test Plan Grid

Users can show/hide all field columns except Sequence No, Key, and Summary in the test plan module grid. Columns selected on the list will appear on the test plan screen. Columns not selected/deselected will remain hidden on the screen. To return to the default view of the Test Plan list view, open the Columns drop-down and select Reset to Default.

Note: A maximum of 40 columns can be selected at a time to display.

Steps to Create a Test Plan

You can create a new Test Plan and directly associate it with the folder.

There are three tabs: Details, Test Cycle, and Attachments.

2. Enter Test Plan Details.

• System Fields: These are system-defined fields. Enter/select values for the fields. The list values are entered in the Configuration > Project Configuration.

  • Labels: It is helpful to group test plans into categories. You can configure the Labels list values from Configuration >Labels.

  • Fix Versions: It shows the version of the software in which the issue is fixed. The field values come from Jira.

  • Sprint: The field is useful for Agile methodology where planned tasks have to be completed by the team and made ready for review. It shows the Sprint in which the test plan is included.

  • Components: It references Project Components that you have created in Configuration > Components like UI, Configuration, etc.

  • Status: It shows the workflow of the test plan with Statuses like To Do, In Progress, Done, etc. You can configure the status list values from Configuration > Statuses.

  • Priority: It shows how important the test plan is with priority assigned as - blocker, critical, high, low, etc. You can configure the priority list values from Configuration > Priority.

  • Reporter: It shows the user who has created the test plan. The user's list displays users who have access to the project.

• Custom Fields: Users can add additional fields other than system fields. Custom Fields are added from Configuration > Custom Fields.

Create another:
Create another checkbox that allows users to keep creating one Test Plan after another without having to click on the "Create" button again and again. It is helpful when you have to create a series of Test Plans.

While creating another entity, values of some fields populate as these field values get preserved.
