Change a Test Case’s Position to arrange the cases linked to a Jira work item, Test Folder, or Test Plan. This lets your team place setup checks before dependent checks or arrange cases in a useful review sequence.
Prepare the list
Open the relevant work item’s Vansah panel, Test Folder, or Test Plan case list.
Display the Position column if it is hidden.
Sort by Position in ascending order.
Clear active filters and collapse any expanded Test Cases.
Choose the exact context whose order you want to change. A case reused in several folders or requirements can have a different position in each one.
Move a case to a new position
Hover over the row to show its Change position control.
Select the control and choose Move to position with the destination number.
Wait for the save response and refresh the list.
Confirm the case appears in the intended position and the neighboring cases have shifted accordingly.
In an Advanced Test Plan, check which requirement is selected before changing its case order.
Understand ranking and sorting
Action | Effect |
Sort a column | Changes how the list is displayed, such as ordering by headline or priority. |
Change position | Saves the case’s place among the cases linked to the selected context. |
Position helps organize the list. It does not automatically execute the tests, create dependencies, change their results, or create a new Test Plan.
If you cannot change the order
Check that Position is sorted ascending.
Clear all active filters and collapse expanded cases.
Work in a specific linked work item, folder, or plan rather than assuming the repository root has a saved requirement order.
Refresh after an error and review the current positions before trying again.
If the control remains unavailable, ask your administrator to check your access and contact Vansah with the context and Test Case key.
