  • Introducing a brand new page and space for users to manage the global test repository which mimics the interface of the original test case repository to ensure a seamless transition.
  • Allows users with the functionality to reuse test cases located directly from the global test repository across all project and releases.
  • Sharing and copying test cases from the global repository to projects is easily completed via Zephyr intuitive drag-and-drop feature.
  • Allows sharing and copying test cases from the global repository to the project test case repository.
  • Allows sharing and copying test cases from the global repository to the specific release test case repository.
Project Test Case Repository
  • Addition of a project test case repository to contain all project owned test cases.
    • This includes all test cases across the project and releases.
    • Separate from the default release test case repository.
Release Requirement Repository
  • Enhancements and additions provided to the requirements repository. 
  • Ability to allow users to organize requirements in a specific release requirement folder or in the project requirement folder.

Test Case Versioning
  • Overall enhancement of test case versioning, quality of life changes and increased functionality.
  • Ability to allow users to preview an individual test case version and its' corresponding test case fields.
  • Ability to allow users to compare two different test case versions in a side-by-side view with color corrective annotations that displays the differences between the two versions.

Test Case Sharing
  • Enhancements to test case sharing.
  • Ability to provide users the option to share test cases across multiple projects and testing repositories.
  • Ability to share test cases directly from releases from other projects in the system.
  • Users are able to share test cases that are located in the global test repository.

  • Ability to view the usage history of an individual test case and preview all the executions of the specific test case which includes additional information that assists users in tracking the usage of a test case.
Test Case Execution History
  • Ability to view the execution history of an individually planned test case execution.
    • Statistics are provided for the execution history which allows users to preview what fields and values are changed/edited when executing the individual test case execution.
