Create a Vansah Test Case from a Jira work item to keep the test connected to the requirement it checks. Saving from the work item’s Vansah panel creates the Test Case and links it to that work item.
Before you begin
Make sure you can open the Jira work item and access Vansah in its Jira space.
You need Vansah permission to create Test Cases. Editing the saved Test Case also requires permission to edit Test Cases.
Review the work item’s requirements and the Test Cases already linked to it. If a suitable Test Case exists, use Link or Link existing Test Cases to reuse it.
1. Open the work item’s Test Cases
Open the Jira story, requirement, bug, or other work item you want to test.
Find the Vansah Test Management panel.
Select Test Cases.
2. Create and link the Test Case
If no Test Cases are linked, use the Add Test Case area. Otherwise, select + (Create Test Case) above the list.
Check the Jira space shown in the creation row. Use the arrow beside its icon to select the Test Case type.
Enter a clear headline in What needs to be tested? For example: Verify that a customer can reset a password with a valid email address.
Select the checkmark (✓) or press Enter.
A headline is required and can contain up to 800 characters. Select a valid Test Case type and enter more than spaces to enable the checkmark.
After a successful save, the Test Case appears in the work item’s list with a key such as DEMO-C46. The success message provides a link to view it. This creates a Vansah Test Case; it does not create another Jira work item.
3. Complete the Test Case
Open the saved Test Case from its headline, key, or the link in the success message.
Review the description. Quick creation initially uses the headline as the description, so add the context a tester needs.
Add any setup conditions, then complete the Test Script with the actions, test data, and expected results needed to check the requirement.
Review the saved Test Case before execution.
Keep each Test Case focused on one behavior. For a password-reset requirement, separate the successful reset, an unrecognized email address, and an expired reset link into distinct tests when each needs its own outcome.
When ready, see Execute a Test Case from a Jira Work Item.
Add more tests for the work item
Select + (Create Test Case) above the linked Test Case list and repeat the process. Each new Test Case is linked to the current work item.
To generate suggestions from the requirement, see Create Test Cases Using AI from a Jira Work Item. Review AI suggestions before creating the tests.
If you cannot create or find the Test Case
What you see | What to check |
The Vansah panel or create action is unavailable | Confirm that Vansah is available in the Jira space and that you have access to the work item. Ask your Vansah administrator to check your create permission. |
The checkmark is unavailable | Choose an existing Test Case type, enter a headline, and wait for the type list to finish loading. |
The saved Test Case is missing | Confirm that you are viewing the same Jira work item. Clear list filters and use the success message’s Test Case link before creating another copy. |
A save error appears | Follow the reported message. Check the linked Test Case list before retrying if the previous attempt may have succeeded. |
