Copy / convert generic Jira items to Zehpys testcases

Question

Hi everybody,&nbsp;before installing Zephyr Scale, we have used generic Jira items to track our testing, and they contain already a lot of valuable information for test cases in Zephyr.&nbsp;How can I copy or convert this items into Zephyr test cases? Either individually or in bulk.&nbsp;Thanks much in advance!Tom&nbsp;

Hi Tom,&nbsp;I guess by generic Jira items you mean Jira Issues.&nbsp; I can think of two options:&nbsp;1) Export the Jira issues into Excel, create some formulas or manually convert the Issues into the Excel template format needed by Zephyr Scale (ZS), and then import.&nbsp; That would technically work.&nbsp;2) You could create test cases with minimal information in them and then add a hyperlink to the Issue in the Comment field or, add the Jira Issue into the ZC Issues field (which automatically creates a hyperlink to the Jira Issue).&nbsp; Either of these options would enable your testers to click a link to the Issue.&nbsp; The potential problem with using the ZC Issues field is that it might screw up your tracking of issues as testers start to raise them but it might be worth a look and test and see what you think.&nbsp;Hope that helps.&nbsp;Andy&nbsp;&nbsp;
