@Gurunathan  As per the error the description field is mandatory. Please add description field in configure screen window and then try again

@Gurunathan ,

 

You have to be sure that each of the excel rows carry data along side the respectiove test steps. For example,

In you excel is having 10 rows which consists of 2 test cases on 5 steps each.

From row 1-5 it should duplicate the test summery/description for first test.

From 6-10 it should have the duplicate the test summery/description for the second test case.

 

You should also give a try to the internal importer which is much easier to configure and use.

Hello @Gurunathan ,

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

I don't use the app myself but according to the error message the import is failing because you are not setting the Description field that is mandatory in Jira. 

In the provided screenshot I cannot see if you are mapping any Excel column to the description field in Jira. Can you kindly double-check this is the case?

 

Cheers,
Dario
