Import test cases

You can import multiple test cases and their corresponding test steps from a spreadsheet.

  • You can use a one-way import to quickly bring legacy test cases into Jama Connect.

  • You can use a round-trip import so you can work with content outside of Jama Connect and bring changes back in safely. 

Tip

Use Excel for test case imports. Although you can use Microsoft Word, you can only map the Name and Description fields, not the individual steps.

Important considerations
  • Each row with the same test case name is imported as a new test step for that case.

  • Test cases and steps can be edited with a round-trip import. For more information, see Edit test cases using round-trip.

To import test cases:

  1. Make sure your spreadsheet includes columns for Test case name and Description. If importing steps, also include a column for Action, Expected results, and Notes.

  2. Add columns to represent additional fields as part of the import. This is consistent with how other imports to Excel work.
