Blanket rename of test cases

Greg Hepburn

How can I rename a series of test cases in 1 process rather than going through each test individually. For example, I have a series of tests commencing with common text and want to change it, for example XXX-Login, XXX-Logout, XXX-test-something . . . . etc and want to change 'XXX-' to 'NEWTEXT-' in each test case name.

Hi @Greg Hepburn -- Welcome to the Atlassian community!

How are these test cases stored?  Are these stored as individual issues in JIRA (similar to a story or bug) with the "name" as the summary field? 

If so, bulk change won't help as it would rename them all to the same name, not different names.

Instead, you could create an automation rule to split/replace parts of the summary.  If that would help, please see this information on automation rules: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/automate-your-jira-cloud-processes-and-workflows/
