Link existing Test Cases to a Test Folder when you want to reuse them in another testing group. Linking keeps the original cases and adds folder associations; it does not create independent copies or run the tests.
Before you begin
Have access to the source cases and destination Jira space, with permission to link and unlink Test Cases.
Create the destination Test Folder if it does not already exist.
Check the source context and version of the cases you want to reuse. From a linked folder or requirement, the link flow uses that context’s active version.
Select the cases to link
Open Vansah → Test Cases in the source Jira space.
Open the repository or folder containing the cases.
Select the checkbox beside each case you want to link. Check the keys and versions in the grid.
Open the grid’s More options menu and select Link Folder.
Choose rows explicitly when you want a specific set. If you open this action from a folder with no rows selected, Vansah can use the folder’s cases as the source. Do not assume an empty selection means that nothing will be linked.
Choose the destination and confirm
In the folder picker, select the destination Jira space using the space icon if you need another space.
Expand or search the folder tree and select the destination Test Folder. Select an actual folder, not the Test Repository root.
Check the case count and destination name displayed beside the action.
Select Link, review the confirmation, and confirm the link.
Wait for the success message, then open or refresh the destination folder.
The screenshots show an earlier layout of the same source-selection and destination-folder workflow.
Check the saved links
Confirm the expected Test Case keys appear in the destination folder.
Check the linked versions, especially when the source context used a different version from the case’s default.
Confirm the original folder still contains its links. Use Move Cases only when you intend a different operation.
If you need copies that can be maintained independently, review Clone a Test Folder and its clone options.
If linking does not complete
Check the selected destination folder, source and destination permissions, and whether the cases are still available at the selected versions. After an error, refresh the destination and inspect existing links before retrying.
You can also manage a single case’s links from its own page. See Link Test Cases to Work Items and Test Folders.
