Organize Test Cases in Folders
QMetry allows testers to organize and manage test cases in a Folder structure-based hierarchy. Testers can group related test cases and organize them systematically during authoring/post-authoring. As an example, testers can create folders like Regression Test, Smoke Test, and Sanity Test for group-related test cases. Each new test case folder creates the next level of test case organization in your test case tree. It helps carry out bulk operations like associating test cases with a story, copying/moving test cases from the source folder to the destination folder.

Where to find the feature?
Open the QMetry menu.
It opens the menu like below. Select Test Management on it.
Note: Two folders with the same name in the same level of a hierarchy are not allowed. However, you can use the same folder name at different levels or in different hierarchies.
2. Select/change the Parent Folder Path.
Create another: Select the checkbox to keep the Add New Folder pop-up open to continue adding folders.
3. Click Submit. It creates a sub-folder under the selected folder.
Required Permission: Users should have either Test Case Create or Test Case Edit and Archive permission to modify the Sequence No. of any test case.
The Sequence No. column is visible only when:
The Display Test Cases of Sub Folder(s) option is disabled on the folder tree.
You have selected a folder other than the All Test Cases folder at the root level.
Note: The sequence number is specific to folder. The same test case can have different sequence numbers in different folders.
The following screens display test cases in the same sequence as set on the test case list view:
Copy Steps from Existing Test Case
Link Test Case to Test Cycle Screen (From a Test Cycle)
Link Existing Test Case to Story (Test Case Acceptance Criteria section in Story)
Audit Logs
Audit logs for individual test cases and the Configuration section store records and information related to the test case sequence changes.
Perform the following steps to view the audit logs of individual test cases:
Navigate to the test case detail page.
Click the Audit Logs tab.
The reordering or test case sequencing details appear.
Note: Two folders with the same name in the same level of a hierarchy are not allowed. However, you can use the same folder name at different levels or in different hierarchies.
Import Test Case
The Import Test Case feature helps you import test cases from an Excel file (CSV/XLSX format) into QMetry for the Jira add-on. Read more details on this page Import Test Cases.
Move and Re-order Folders
Users can re-order or move folders within the folder hierarchy using the drag-and-drop operation across all modules. Refer to Move and Re-order Folders for more details.
