A well-organized workspace is a well-organized mind. Folders, available in QAlity Plus, allow you to group your test cases and manage them more efficiently.
Creating Folders
To create a folder, click the Create Folder button. You will find it at the top of the Repository navigation panel on the left.
...
Folder creation modal will appear, requesting you to enter the new folder’s name. Folder names do not have to be unique. You will also be requested to choose the main project for your folder. The access to the folder will be based on the permissions of the selected main project.
...

It’s important to note that you can add to your folder test cases from multiple different projects. The only purpose of choosing the main project is to set the permissions for the new folder. You can learn more about folder permissions here. |
Once you’ve created a new folder, it will appear on the list in the navigation panel on the left. There are two types of folder icons - a filled one, indicating that there are test cases in the folder, and a hollow one, indicating that the folder is empty.
...
Adding test cases to folders
In your new folder or subfolder, you can either Create Test Case or Browse Existing Test Cases, and add them to the folder.
...
Selected test cases can be added to an existing folder. You can also choose to create a new folder for them.
| Info |
|---|
You can add the same Test Casetest case to the Folder folder multiple times. For example in some cases, users execute the same Test Case test case within a Test Cycle test cycle multiple times for different environments. In such case, user can create a folder for Regression Tests with the Test Case test case added multiple times. |
...
Similarly, you can add the selected cases to an existing test cycle, or create a new one.
You can also drag and drop your selected test cases to put them into your folder or subfolder.
...
Notice that they are duplicated during this process rather than moved. It means that the test cases you dragged and dropped from Folder A to Folder B are now in both folders.
...
Creating test cases inside your folder
You can create a test case which will be immediately assigned to the folder. While being in a folder, select Create Test Case in this Folder.
...
By clicking a three-dot menu in the bottom right corner, you can choose to export test cases.
...
...
Deleting test cases from your folder
To delete a single issue from your folder click on the three dots and choose Remove from folder.
...
You can also select multiple issue issues, and delete them by clicking on the three dotsat the bottom select and selecting Remove from folder.
...
Deleting Folders
You can also delete your folder by clicking a three-dot menu in the upper right corner.

Please, keep in mind that deleting a folder full of test cases or a single issue from a folder will not result in deleting your test cases. Your folders serve as filters of the contents available in the All Test Cases hub. Consequently, they will still be available on the All Test Cases page, as long as you don’t completely remove them from your instance. Therefore, it is possible to add one test case to multiple folders. |
Such a solution allows you to freely manage your test cases, organize them in folders, add them to multiple folders, and move them around, without having to worry about losing them.
