Working with Test Cases
Clone a Test Case
Cloning a test case keeps scripts intact and clears all test results, comments, attachments, and defects.
Simply select any number of test cases you want to clone, then click More > Clone.
New test cases appear in the test-case list with "(cloned)" in the title. You can click/open a test case to rename it.
Archive Test Cases
Unused test cases can clog up the test library, so you can archive those you aren’t currently using to clean up the space. Archiving removes unwanted test cases from the test library without permanently deleting the testing data.
To archive unused test cases, select the test cases you want to move to the archive, then click Archive.
Confirm you want to archive when prompted, and the test cases move out of the test library and into the archive.
You can access archived test cases by clicking Archived Test Cases at the bottom of the Folders panel.
Unarchive Test Cases
You can move archived test cases back to the test library at any time.
Simply click Archived Test Cases while in the Tests view to access the archive, select the test cases you want to move to the test library, then click Unarchive.
Confirm you want to unarchive when prompted, and the test cases move back into the test library.
Delete a Test Case
See Deleting Test Cases.
