In Zephyr, administrators can enable email notifications to inform users about various events that occur when working with test cases. These events include the following:
When a test case is assigned to you.
When your test case is moved.
When your test case is deleted.
When someone creates a new version of your test case.
When there are bulk operations of the any of the above (you will only receive a single email for bulk operations).
To enable email notifications:
1. On the Administration tab, navigate to the System Setup > System Config page:
2. Toggle the Enable Email Notification switch to ON.
3. Populate all the required fields in the SMTP Settings for Email Notifications section (the ones marked with a red asterisk).
4. Click Test to see if everything works as expected. The Send Test Email dialog will appear. In the dialog, specify the email address you want to send a test email to and click Send Test Mail:
5. If everything works correctly, click Save to apply the changes:
