Deleting Projects

Prior to Deleting a Project

Prior to deleting a project, there must be an existing administrator that has been created in Zephyr Enterprise. The administrator/system user must be logged in and be under the Project Setup section within the administration section.

Scenario: You are a testing manager that has a role of a 'manager' in Zephyr Enterprise. As a testing manager, you want to delete an existing project in the system.

If this is your first time managing projects, you might want to work with a test project rather than an actual project in the system, and that way, you can work out any issues you might have with managing projects before you work with live projects.


1. Click on the  icon for the specific project that you want to delete.

2. A warning module will pop up asking, "Are you sure you want to delete this?" and then you click the "OK" button.

3. A second module will pop up asking, "This change cannot be rolled back, continue with delete?" and then you click the "Continue" button.

  • You can immediately see that the deleted project no longer within the system.


Disclaimer

Once you delete a project, there is no way of getting the project back. You should be careful with what projects you delete.
