Use the Vansah - Test Case Assignment Overview gadget to compare Test Case assignments across your team. The chart groups the selected assignments by assignee, with related Test Run and work item information. Use it to find unassigned testing work and investigate each person’s assignments.
Before you begin
Use a Jira dashboard you can edit.
Make sure you can access Vansah and the Test Cases in the Jira space you want to report on.
Decide whether to report on work items and Test Folders or on Test Plans.
1. Add the gadget
Open your Jira dashboard and select Edit.
Select Add gadget and search for Test Case Assignment Overview.
Add the Vansah gadget, then select Configure this Gadget. For an existing gadget, open its menu and select Configure.
2. Choose the reporting scope
Select the Jira space to report on.
Under Please Choose Reporting Type, choose Work Item/Test Folder or Test Plan.
For Work Item/Test Folder, select the Test Folders and/or Jira work items to include. For Test Plan, use Search Test Plans to open the plan picker, select the plans, and select Apply.
Optionally use More to add filters, such as assignees, owners, labels, case types, releases, or environments. Available property filters depend on the Jira space settings.
Select Save.
Select at least one work item, Test Folder, or Test Plan in the chosen reporting type. If Save is unavailable, check the Jira space and reporting selections.
Read the chart and table
Field | Meaning |
Assignee | The person assigned to the Test Case in the selected work item, folder, or plan context. Unassigned groups assignments without a resolved assignee. |
Total | Test Case assignments included for that person. The same Test Case can contribute more than once when it is linked in multiple selected contexts. |
Test Runs | Distinct Test Runs selected for those assignments. The report uses the latest matching run for each assignment; this is not a lifetime execution total. |
Work items/bugs | Jira work item links recorded on the selected test logs. The same work item can contribute more than once when linked to multiple logs. |
The chart groups by assignee, even when you use an owner filter. A Test Case’s owner and the person assigned to test it can be different.
Expand Table data below the chart to read the values and open the linked work items. The screenshot shows this table expanded.
Open the underlying information
Select a nonzero Total count, or its bar in the chart, to open the related Test Cases.
Select a nonzero Test Runs count, or its bar, to inspect the selected runs.
Select a work item key in the table to open it in Jira. The Work items/bugs bar opens the related work items.
Chart drilldowns are available in the bar view. Switch back to bars if you are using another display style and want to open a chart value.
Change or download the chart
Use the chart toolbox to switch between line and bar displays, stack the series, restore the original display, or save the chart as an image. Hover over each icon for its label.
Use the slider below the chart to move through assignees when many people are included.
For report data, open Options (three dots), select Export, and choose XLSX or HTML.
Changing to a line chart changes only the display. The horizontal axis still lists assignees; it does not become a history of testing activity.
If the counts look unexpected
Check the selected reporting type, Jira space, work items, folders, plans, and saved filters.
Review Unassigned to find assignments that need an assignee. Compare assignments in the same work item, folder, or plan context.
Open Total before comparing it with a unique Test Case count elsewhere. This gadget counts assignments in its selected scope.
Open the Test Runs and work item links to investigate related activity. More work item links do not by themselves mean more failed tests.
