XRAY Traceability Report show coverage of parent coverable issues

I want to show the coverage of Requirements in the Traceability Report however our Test Sets and Test Executions are children of Requirements rather than linked using the 'is tested by' link type.  This means that the Test Executions are not showing up on the Traceability Report.  I can't find any configuration to get them to show up.  Do they have to be linked using the 'is tested by' link type to show up on the Traceability Report?

Hi @Peggy Creek , 

To show Requirement coverage in the Traceability Report, your Requirement issues (Stories, Epics) must be linked to Test issues using the “Tests” / “Tested by” issue link type. Having Test Sets or Test Executions as children of Requirements won’t work. Xray doesn’t trace coverage through those relationships.

Hope to have helped, in case you're still stuck, follow @Marc - Devoteam suggestion and contact our support.

Hi @Peggy Creek 

I do think they have to be linked.

But I'm not a 100% sure. 

Best is to ask this question at Xray support.
