Quick Import data using Zephyr Scale

Set up BrowserStack Test Management by quickly importing projects and test cases from Zephyr Scale.

Quick Import from Dashboard

You can do a Quick Import of Zephyr Scale from the dashboard by selecting the Quick Import option in the drop-down menu of Create Project.

Also, you can do a Quick Import from Zephyr Scale once you have created a project in the dashboard.

You can import Zephyr Scale data by entering API tokens and establishing a connection.

Provide Zephyr Scale details and test connection

1. Enter Jira Host Name. Host Name is your JIRA account, where Zephyr is linked. For example https://abcd.atlassian.net
2. Enter your Jira Email Address.
3. Enter Jira API Token. You can find your Jira API token here.
4. Enter your Zephyr Scale API Token. Refer to this documentation to generate or access the Zephyr Scale API token.
5. Click Test connection to verify the connection with provided details.
6. Click Proceed to save and establish the connection.

Confirm Import

Select the Zephyr Scale projects that you want to import, and then click Begin Import.

View and manage Import Logs

After confirming your import settings and initiating a Zephyr Scale import, you can track its progress and review the outcomes of current and all previous imports from the Import Logs tab. This centralized log helps you stay informed about ongoing imports and maintain a historical record of all completed or failed attempts, ensuring you have the details needed for troubleshooting and analysis.

Key features of the Import Logs:

• Real-time status tracking:
  As soon as you start an import, it will appear in the list with a corresponding status indicator. You’ll be able to see if the import is still in progress, has completed successfully, or encountered errors. The status icons and textual cues offer a quick snapshot of the current state.

• Detailed metrics per Import:
  Each entry in the logs provides essential metrics about that specific import, such as:
  • Number of test cases imported: How many test cases were successfully brought over from Zephyr Scale.
  • Test runs & test plans data: The number of test runs and test plans associated with the import, allowing you to verify that key project elements have been accurately transferred.
  • Project count: The number of projects affected by the import operation.

• User & timestamp information:
  The logs capture who initiated the import and when it was started. This helps maintain accountability and trace changes back to specific team members. If you have multiple team members initiating imports, this information streamlines coordination and follow-up.

• Access to detailed error information: Using the action menu (the three dots next to a specific import), you can:
  • View Report: Dive deeper into the results of a completed or partially completed import. These reports can include success metrics, error messages, and other diagnostic details.
  • Retry Import: If an import encountered errors or did not yield the expected results, quickly reinitiate the process from here. This feature streamlines troubleshooting and reduces the time spent switching between different sections of the interface.

Import Progress

You can check the import progress on the All Projects page and click View Details to check import progress in the Quick Import detailed view.

If required, you can also Cancel the import process from the Quick Import detailed view.

After the import completes successfully, click View Report to check the result of the import process.
