Bulk Update Test Run Properties and Results

Update properties or results for selected existing Test Runs, and understand how bulk result changes affect execution steps.

Use Bulk Action → Edit Test Runs to change properties or results for existing executions. Select the relevant Test Case rows in their work item, Test Folder, or Test Plan context, then choose the values to update.

Before you begin

  • Make sure you have access to the Jira space and permission to edit the selected cases.

  • Select cases that already have Test Runs. This action updates existing runs; it does not create runs for unexecuted cases.

  • Check the current work item, folder, plan, iteration, filters, and selected count.

For individual row selections, the action uses the Test Runs associated with those displayed rows, rather than every historical run for each case.

Update the selected runs

  1. Open the relevant Test Cases list and select the rows to update.

  2. Open More → Bulk Action.

  3. Choose Edit Test Runs, then select Next.

  4. Check each property you want to change and choose its new value. Leave other property checkboxes unchecked.

  5. Review the selection and changes, then select Update.

  6. Wait for the response. Reopen representative runs and verify the saved properties and results.

Choosing properties and a result for bulk Test Run updates

Choose the fields to change

Field

What to check

Environment

Choose an available environment when enabled.

Version

Choose the Jira release/version, rather than a Test Case version number.

Sprint

Choose an available sprint when enabled.

Result

Choose an enabled result from your Jira space’s configured Test Results.

Available fields depend on the current context and space settings. Plan views may offer fewer property choices because execution properties come from the plan or iteration.

Understand a bulk result change

Changing Result also applies that result to the affected runs’ execution logs and related step-iteration records. It changes recorded execution details as well as the overall run result.

Use this option only when the same result should apply to those recorded steps. To preserve different step results, update the run through its execution screen.

If the update reports an error

Refresh and inspect the affected runs before retrying. Some changes can be saved before an error is reported. If you update properties without selecting Result and receive an error, check whether those properties were saved and contact Vansah if the message continues.

Do not select an unrelated result to bypass an error. If no runs were found, select cases with an existing execution in the context you intend to update.
