Need help to understand what field should I use in my JQL for extracting the Test cases attached to a story (zephyr)?

Tried with various names starting with ’Test Case’, Zephyr, Coverage but nothing worked.

Hi @ltammineni and welcome to the Community

Unfortunately you can not search for the issuetype "Testcase" via JQL.

If you need to find a testcase and related work items i think the best way is to use the tracebility matrix.

If you are using Zephyr Scale, go to Zephyr Scale in the Apps section and go to Reports. In reports you can find a Traceability report where you can find testcases and related work items.

Also be aware that there might be a specific permission schema for Zephyr scale that might prevent you from seeing the reports section. 

Best regards,
/Staffan

Staffan is correct, and the issuetype of Test is no longer supported, but, there is an exception: if you are using the Server/DC version of Zephyr, that version is able to use JQL functions - link here to their help page: JQL Functions | Zephyr DC Documentation.

Good luck.

Correct me if i'm wrong. Normally if you are using Zephyr plugin, an additional issuetype like test and testcase will be created and you will use that to create test cases right?

In that case if you want to see them you need to use project = XYZ and issuetype= Test or Testcase

If you linked certain test cases to story thenn you need to use below jql
