Save a Test Case filter to reuse search criteria without rebuilding them each time. For example, save a filter for high-priority cases with a Smoke label, then reopen it when preparing a test cycle.
Create a saved filter
Open the Test Case list in the Jira space and context you want to work in.
Set your search and filter values. Use More to add supported fields such as type, priority, labels, or assignee.
Review the matching cases, then select Save Filter.
Enter a clear Name. Add a short Description to explain the filter’s purpose.
Under Viewers, choose Private or Public.
Select Save and confirm that the filter is available in Saved Filters.
Use search criteria for a reusable filter. Selecting rows is different from filtering the list; do not rely on row selection alone to save an exact case set.
This earlier-layout screenshot shows the Save Filter action above the list.
Choose visibility
Option | Use it for |
Private | A filter you want to keep for your own use. |
Public | A filter other users can find in the applicable saved-filter list. |
Sharing a filter does not grant access to its Test Cases or Jira space. Each user still needs the relevant permissions.
Open or update a filter
Open Saved Filters from the Test Case list.
Search for the filter by name and select it.
Review the criteria and results in your current context.
To change a filter you own, use its edit action, review its details, and select Update.
Saved criteria are applied to the available data when you use the filter. Results can change as cases, values, permissions, or the current context change. A saved filter is not an archived report.
If the results look different
Check the Jira space, folder, work item, or Test Plan iteration you are viewing.
Review the saved values and any additional active filters.
Use short, descriptive names and descriptions. Follow any length or duplicate-name message shown in the form.
If you cannot edit a public filter, check whether you created it.
See filter Test Cases for more ways to narrow the list.
