How to map an XRAY test field to the Execution Issue?

Question

I am trying to import a lot of tests into JIRA. We are using XRAY and I can get every field I need mapped except the Execution Issue linked to the test case issue. There appear to be no fields related to execution available to map to.

To be clear: I am not trying to import test executions, just map a test case issue to an existing Execution Issue.

thanks for the help

Hi @logan.craig ,

It is not possible to import Test using the TCI and directly associate them with a Test Execution, because the association between those two issues is not a Jira link. As such, it is not possible to define before the Tests exist. A quick workaround to associate the Tests to the Test Execution is to import them with a specific Label. that way, you can easily find and select them on the Test Execution's Issue Picker Dialog.

Best Regards,

Team Xray

Hello Craig,

Good afternoon.

You will be able to import a TCID associated with the Test Execution, using the Xray Field => Link "Link".  From this Field,  will be possible to import other Issues like: EPIC, Test Sets, Test Execution, Story etc.

Try it and be happy. :-)

Thx in advance.
