Test Key

Testing objects in Requirements and Test Management for Jira can be identified by their Test Keys. It’s an attribute assigned to each Requirement/ Test Case/ Test Plan/ Test Execution/ Test Case Execution and all the elements on the tree structure.

Test Key is automatically initiated during the creation of testing objects. For the regular issues, it’s set up on the value of Issue Key. In the case of elements on the tree structure, a Test Key is set up on a specifically generated, unique value. It can be directly modified on the details view anytime, if necessary.
