While reviewing a Test Run, use Linked Test Cases to open other cases related to the case being executed. These are Test Case relationships; the list does not mean those cases were executed as part of the current run.
View the linked cases
Open the Test Run you want to review. Check the run key and the Test Case shown in its header.
Open or expand the Test Case details in the run view.
Expand Linked Test Cases. The count shows how many related cases are listed.
Select a linked case key to open that case.
The screenshots below show the collapsed and expanded list in an earlier execution layout.
Understand what the links mean
Item | Meaning |
The Test Case in the run header | The case being executed by this Test Run. |
Linked Test Cases | Other cases associated with that case. Opening a link does not execute it. |
The run’s result and actual results | The outcome and observations recorded for this execution. |
To check a related case’s results, open that case and review its own Test Runs in the relevant folder, work item, or Test Plan context. Do not treat the current run’s result as the result for every linked case.
If a linked case is missing
Check the Test Case and version associated with the run.
A zero count means no related cases were returned for the details being displayed.
Confirm that your account can access the related case and its Jira space.
To change case relationships, open the Test Case itself. The links in the run’s read-only details are for navigation.
