Search Test Cases with Filters

Narrow a Test Case list by assignment, result, labels, dates, and other properties, then save or clear your filters.

Use filters to narrow a Test Case list to the work you need to review. Combine them with a search term when a headline search alone is too broad.

Apply filters

  1. Open Test Cases in Vansah, or open the case list for the work item, Test Folder, or Test Plan you need.

  2. Select Filters. Add a field from the menu; some views show a More control for additional fields.

  3. Open each selected field and choose its values. Check any available equals, not-equals, or other comparison.

  4. Review the refreshed list and the active filters.

  5. Remove one filter or use Clear filters to broaden the results.

Choose a useful filter

What you need

Filter to consider

Assigned work

Assignee or Owner

Testing outcomes

Result, Last Tested By, or Tested Date

Case classification

Type, Priority, Labels, Components, or script format

Authoring and updates

Created By, Created Date, Updated By, or Updated Date

Linked requirements

Jira work items or linked Test Folders

Case maintenance status

Status, which is separate from the execution Result

For example, select Assignee = Current User and a Failed result to focus on assigned cases with that applicable outcome. A filter does not change assignments or test results.

Understand the scope

  • Different filters narrow the list together. Selecting several values inside one filter follows that field’s comparison.

  • The current Jira space, requirement, folder, version, and plan iteration still limit the search. A filter does not grant broader access.

  • Result and Last Tested By filters use the applicable execution context; they are not a search of every historical run.

  • Linked-folder filters have their own matching rules. See Filter Cases by Linked Folders.

Reuse a search

Use Save Filter when the view offers it. Give the saved filter a meaningful name and check its sharing setting. See Saved Filters for Test Cases.

If expected cases are missing

  1. Clear filters and the search term.

  2. Confirm the selected Jira space or requirement. In a plan, check the iteration.

  3. Add filters back one at a time to identify which condition excludes the case.

  4. Check the selected Test Case version and open its history or runs when you need historical details.
