Export Test Cases

Download Vansah Test Case details, scripts, or results as XLSX, CSV, HTML, TXT, or XML, and check the exported versions, folder links, and execution context.

Export Test Cases when you need a file for review, reporting, or sharing. Choose the cases, decide whether to include their Test Scripts or results, and select the file format that fits your task.

Before you begin

  • You need access to the Jira space and Vansah permission to export Test Cases.

  • Review the selected folder, work item, or Test Plan before exporting. This context can affect the case versions and results included.

  • If you need only specific cases, select them explicitly in the Test Case list.

1. Choose the Test Cases

  1. Open Vansah → Test Cases in the Jira space.

  2. Open the Test Repository or the Test Folder containing the cases.

  3. Select the checkboxes for the Test Cases you want to export.

  4. Open the list’s more options menu and select Export.

You can also use Export from a Test Folder’s menu when you want that folder’s scope. Review any existing case selection before continuing; selected cases and a folder-wide export are different scopes.

2. Choose what to include

Export option

What it includes

Test Cases

Test Case information, such as keys, versions, headlines, descriptions, ownership, and links.

Test Cases and Test Script

Test Case information plus the script, including steps, test data, and expected results for a Multi Steps script.

Test Cases, Test Script and Results

Test Case information and execution details, including the associated Test Run and available step results or Actual Result.

Select the option you need, then select Next. A script export can contain several rows for one Test Case, so the file’s row count may exceed the number of selected cases.

3. Choose the file type and export

File type

Use it for

XLSX

Reviewing and filtering the exported information in a spreadsheet.

CSV

Exchanging tabular data with a spreadsheet or another tool.

HTML

A formatted preview and downloadable document that can include images.

TXT or XML

A text or XML export when your receiving tool needs one of these formats.

Cucumber (.feature)

The dedicated feature-file export workflow, when a script option is selected and you have the required permission.

  1. Choose the File Type. XLSX is a useful starting point for spreadsheet review.

  2. Select Export.

  3. Wait for the export to finish and open the downloaded file.

  4. Check several cases before using the file for reporting or sharing.

For Cucumber settings and download options, see Cucumber Feature Export. The formats offered can vary by the export workflow; a batch Test Plan export offers XLSX.

Export an HTML document

  1. Select HTML as the file type, then select Export.

  2. When asked whether to include attachments (images), choose Yes or No. Including images can take longer.

  3. Review the generated Preview.

  4. Select Download to save the HTML document.

Check the downloaded document before sharing it, especially when images or execution evidence are important to the review.

Check the exported information

  • Use CASE KEY and VERSION to identify each exported Test Case version.

  • For a results export, review TEST RUN #, the requirement, and the overall and step results. Compare the same execution context in Vansah.

  • Review LINKED TEST FOLDERS for folder relationships. Multiple paths appear in one comma-separated cell.

  • For a folder export, additional Folder Name and Folder Path columns identify the source folder.

  • In a script export, some Test Case-level fields appear only on the first row for that case; following rows can contain the remaining steps.

See Understand Test Folder Paths in Test Case Exports for examples of the linked-folder column.

A results export reflects the runs selected by its export context. It is not a complete history of every execution recorded for each Test Case.

If the export is missing information

Issue

What to check

Export is unavailable

Check your Vansah export permission and whether the cases or folder are selected.

No cases are found

Recheck the selected scope and case links. Clear unintended selections before exporting a folder-wide scope.

The script is missing

Choose an option that includes Test Script and confirm that the exported version has a saved script.

Results differ from another screen

Compare the same Test Case version, Test Run, work item, folder, or plan iteration.

The CSV layout looks incorrect

Import it with a CSV-aware tool so quoted cells and commas inside values are handled correctly.

HTML was previewed but no file was saved

Select Download from the preview.

An export error appears

Follow the message and check browser downloads before starting another export.
