Jira Structure nesting IF statements

Question

I'm using the following IF statement to count the number of issues which test a given issue:

IF (issueLinks.FILTER($.type.inward = "tested by" AND $.destination = this) 
; CONCAT(SIZE(issueLinks.FILTER($.type.inward = "tested by" AND $.destination = this)); " Tests") 
; "*No Coverage*")

I'd like it to be grammatically correct and if the SIZE is less than 2, it concatenates the word "test" rather than "tests", but I can't figure out the syntax to nest the IF statements correctly.

Hello @Dan Giordano

if you just need to count the number of specific links, you can use a simpler formula like this:

if issueLinks.FILTER($.type.inward = "tested by" AND $.destination = this).size() >0: "test" else "No coverage"

I hope this helps. If you need further assistance here, please reach out to us directly at our support portal.

I've fumbled into this slightly more efficient version, but still don't fully understand how the syntax works so I can distinguish when the SIZE is 1 or greater than 1

WITH testcount = SIZE(issueLinks.FILTER($.type.inward = "tested by" AND $.destination = this)):

IF issuetype = 'Test' OR itemtype = "Folder": 
"" 
ELSE IF (issueLinks.FILTER($.type.inward = "tested by" AND $.destination = this);
CONCAT(testcount; " Tests"); 
("*No Coverage*"))
