Configure project settings

Control settings for projects such as automatic versioning, the maximum number of items displayed in the Explorer Tree, and where to save test run defects.

Note

You must be a project or organization admin to complete this task.

  1. Select Admin > Project > Settings, then select Edit.

    The Admin button in the header is highlighted, along with the Project tab in the Explorer Tree, the Settings tab in the details panel, and the Edit button.
  2. On the Settings page that opens, configure the following options as needed:

    • Version items — Turns automatic versioning on and off when using the Save and Close option.

      Best Practice: Initial import and setup can result in unwanted versions of items. To minimize the number of versions, turn off versioning during your initial import and data manipulation. Once it is complete, enable versioning to capture actual edits to the items.

    • Max items displayed in Explorer Tree — Sets the maximum number of items that are displayed per container (project, component, set, or folders) when using the Explorer Tree.

      Tip

      Setting this option can improve performance when you work with large data sets.

    • Save test run defects here — Sends defects that are recorded in the Test execution window are automatically sent to this location in the project. The Defect item types must be a Visible item type for them to appear. See Configure project item types.
