Email Notifications

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:

Open

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:

Open

5. If everything works correctly, click Save to apply the changes:

Examples 

Below are some of the emails that Zephyr sends to the respective users when email notifications are enabled:

If a bulk operation is performed on multiple test cases, the users will get an email with the IDs of the affected test cases:
