Use the Vansah Dashboard

Open Vansah in a Jira space, review Overview widgets, choose a reporting period, and customize the tabs you use for testing.

The Vansah dashboard brings your Jira space’s Test Cases, Test Runs, Test Plans, reports, and recent testing activity together. Start with Overview for a summary, then open the relevant tab or linked count to explore the details.

Open the dashboard

  1. Open the Jira space you want to work in.

  2. Select Vansah in the space navigation. The location can vary with your Jira layout.

  3. Select Overview if another tab opens. Your saved tab settings or a direct link can change the starting view.

Vansah must be enabled for the Jira space. You also need access to the space and the Vansah permissions for the actions you want to perform.

Choose a period and refresh the overview

  1. Use the period selector above Space Status to choose a range, such as Last 7 Days or Last 30 Days.

  2. Review the status figures and lists for that range.

  3. Select Refresh when you want to load the latest available data.

The date range is important when comparing counts. Test Cases are selected by their creation date. Status and Test Run widgets also use Test Run update dates within the range. An older Test Case can therefore be excluded even if it was tested recently; choose a wider period when you need to include it.

The Activity feed loads recent events separately. Changing the overview period does not apply the same date filter to that feed.

What it shows

Useful action

Activity

Recent recorded Vansah events, including relevant Test Case and execution changes.

Use the linked item to inspect the related testing activity.

Widget lists load in batches. Use Show more where offered to load additional entries. Opening a widget does not grant extra access; create, edit, and execution actions still depend on your permissions and settings.

Create or open a Test Case from Overview

  1. In the Test Cases widget, select an existing Test Case key or headline to open it.

  2. To add a case, select +, choose a Case Type, and enter a clear headline.

  3. Use the checkmark or press Enter to create it.

  4. Open the new case to complete its description, script, and other details.

Vansah Intelligence

AI features available for your license, configuration, and permissions.

Help and Vansah settings are separate controls. To manage Jira space settings, open the Vansah settings menu and select Settings and Compliance, then Space Settings. You need Jira administrator or Jira space administrator access.

Show, hide, or reorder tabs

  1. Open the Vansah settings menu and select Tabs to open Configure Tabs.

  2. Select the tabs you want to show and clear optional tabs you want to hide. The required tab remains selected.

  3. Select Save. To return to the standard tab selection, choose Restore defaults, then Save.

  4. To change the order, drag a tab to its new position. The order is saved for your user in that Jira space.

The screenshot shows the tab selection panel with an earlier entry point. In the current menu, open Tabs from Vansah settings. Hiding a tab changes your navigation; it does not remove its testing data or change team permissions.

If something is missing

  • If Overview is hidden, enable it in Configure Tabs.

  • If counts look lower than expected, check the selected period and the Test Case creation-date scope.

  • If a control is unavailable, check your Vansah permissions and enabled Jira space settings.

  • If a recent change is not visible, refresh the overview and open the related item to confirm its saved details.
