Xray test coverage - Ignores the Tests list and requires additional test linkage

Question

Xray Test plan enables adding Tests/Tests from Test Sets and then create test execution for these tests.

This execution is being properly recorded and provides some great indications about the executions and tests status.

However, this indications are not taken into account on the Test Coverage.

In order to have it indicated in the test coverage we must separately link each test to the test plan.

1. The test plan is already contains the tests - Why this linkage overhead is required ?

2. Is there any workaround ?

Thanks

Hello Sergio,

This is exactly the issue.

Add - Tests, Is already adding the tests to the the test plan (requirement).

Why do I need to also link them ?

If linking, I am actually adding the tests twice (add tests + link tests)

Thanks,

Hi @Elad Tayar

Not sure if you're linking the tests to the Requirement to see the Test Coverage correctly.
Please check our documentation page for guidance on this topic. Also, if you have any additional questions I recommend you to reach out Xray support and the team will be glad to help you out.
