Import tests from a spreadsheet
The tests you already have no longer need retyping. Import tests in the Library takes a CSV or TSV file exported from a spreadsheet or another tool — download the template if you are starting fresh — lets you map its columns onto a test's fields, and shows every test validated and grouped before anything is created. Rows that share a test ID become one test with a step each, even when they are not next to each other; a row without one becomes a single-step test. Tests can cover Jira issues from the same file, and they land in the project and folder you choose. A file can hold up to 500 tests and 10,000 steps.
An import can be stopped and picked up again, even after a reload or a closed tab, for seven days; tests that finished stay, and a retry never creates the same test twice. A test only appears in the Library, its counts and the coverage field once all of its steps are in. Anything that could not be imported comes back as a downloadable error report that names the row and the reason, in your language. Importing the same file again asks whether you meant to, rather than quietly making a second copy.
The Library is also easier to move around on a large site: the folder tree, the test list and the test's details now scroll independently, so picking a test near the bottom of a long list no longer leaves its details out of sight.
