XRay Test Cases in Backlog

Trent January 2, 2020

I'm using the Next Gen project board and we recently integrated XRay for Test Case Management. All of the Test cases that have been added are added to my backlog as well, which in my opinion, they shouldn't be seen there.  Is there something I'm missing in my configuration so that Test Cases don't end up in the backlog for my Next Gen Project?

Hi Trent, 

We are aware that you already opened a ticket on our service desk. 

Nonetheless, if you mean Test Cases created within the same Next Gen projec, currently there is no way to configure a setting for those to not appear in your backlog.

Best Regards,

Is this also true for Classic projects? I'm of the same opinion as Trent, test cases should not appear in backlogs.

Hi @Tim Heighes 

No, this is not true for Classic Projects. There, you can control what issue types you see through the Backlog's "Board Settings" by altering the "Saved Filter" on the "General" settings.
