Unable to edit or modify test case once published in X-Ray JIRA

Sreeraj C

We have a situation where we are using XRAY integrated JIRA to write and execute test cases. Now, the issue is that once the test cases is published and in case we have to edit or modify the test case under any circumstances we are unable to to it.

Only the JIRA administrator is able to edit the test cases. Does it require any special rights or the publisher/ reporter/ assignee can also edit the published 'Status' test case

Hi @Sreeraj C 

what exactly does "published" mean in your case? Do you have a special workflow for test issue type?

If so: Could you show/describe the workflow?

In case the "Published" is a workflow status it might be possible there is set a workflow property that denies/avoids editting an issue in a special status or limits the permission to edit to special roles/people/groups.

See detailed documentation below:

Hope this was helpful. 

Best
