Looking for Automation Trigger

Question

Hello everyone,

I am looking for the trigger for my automation. The trigger should be activated when a test linked to my issue is set to the status: Completed.

Basically, my following condition only checks whether the linked test has the status: Completed, and then sets a field. However, I just can’t find a trigger that I can use without much effort. The time-based trigger only runs every 5 minutes, which is too long. A trigger that works, for example, when an issue is found in a JQL query would also be suitable.

Can somebody help me here?

It is an test execution with a manual Xray Test.

I will give your way a try, thanks a lot! :)

Rules cannot be triggered by navigation events.

The rule I described might accomplish your requirement. How are you managing test executions? Are you using a third party app for test management? If so, which one? I have not worked on automation rules that specifically interact with test entities managed by a third party app.

Hi, thanks for the Information. Here is the description of the process:

1. I open the test which is linked to my issue

2. I set the test-execution to status: done

3. I navigate back to my issue

4. Now a Trigger should start my automation, which checks if the linked test-execution has the status: done and when there is the status: done it changes a value of a field in my issue
