Data Query for Jira Fields

The Data Query for Jira fields includes the ability to search qTest Requirements, Test Cases, and Test Runs with linked Jira Requirement and Defect fields. This enables you to locate Jira data that is associated with qTest much easier!

You must Fetch Jira Defects and Retrieve Jira Data for Requirements from the Integration Settings page, before attempting to query Jira fields. This manual step re-indexes your database, to allow for the query to return results using Jira data.

You can select the following qTest data and Jira fields/values in the Data Query Criteria fields and view the results in the Query Result grid view.
