Hi @Bharath Siva - If you can access via JQL you can use Rich Filters.  Rich Filters simply provides a mechanism for extending JQL into a virtually unlimited set of sub-JQL so you can slice and dice what would normally be returned from a traditional filter.

Thank You,
it means we can't use for X Ray right ?

As I understand it, XRay is just creating custom issue types which means you can execute JQL against them.  So I would think you could use Rich Filters against them.

We are using Rich Filters for XRay work but it does not currently allow reporting on the XRay custom field of 'test type'. When we're trying to pull metrics on manual vs. automated testing, that is obviously an issue.

Are you able to create smart filters that perform JQL against test type and then leverage the smart filters in your gadgets?  I had the same issue when attempting to report against Request Type in JSM.  I ended up creating my own Request Type smart filter like this:

  • "Request Type" = "request type 1"
  • "Request Type" = "request type 2"
  • "Request Type" = "request type 3"

The same approach could be used for Test Type.
