Include folders when exporting tests from the Test repository to a e.g. a CSV file?

[Anette Larsen]

Is it possible to include folders from Test Repository when exporting test cases from Xray to a e.g. a CSV file? 
This is really a need!

Hi @Anette Larsen 

No.

I suggest to create a feature request with Xray via, Xray Support or check the Xray roadmap

Hi @Anette Larsen

Welcome to the Community!

Short answer is as @Marc - Devoteam said, the built-in CSV export from Jira’s Issue Navigator does not include the Xray Test Repository folder because that folder path isn’t a native Jira field.

However there are supported ways to get it:

Using GraphQL each Test exposes its repository folder (including the full path). Example you can run in Postman or your CI:

{
getTests(
jql: "project = ABC AND issuetype = Test"
limit: 100
start: 0
) {
total
results {
jira(fields: ["key","summary"])
folder { path }
testType { name }
}
}
}

• Test.folder.path is the full folder string like /Regression/Login.  

• getTests supports filtering by folder directly, i.e.: folder: { path: "/Regression", includeDescendants: true }.  

• Endpoint & schema refs: GraphQL index and getTests.  

GraphQL Schema for assistance

Exporting to CSV: take the JSON and flatten jira.key, jira.summary, folder.path, etc., then save as CSV (Excel/Power Query, jq, or your ETL of choice).

In case assistance is needed, our support is here for you.
