Query for Tickets with the field "Test Repository Path" not set (Orphans) in Xray

[Flummiboy]

Hi,

I want to query for issues of type Test which do not have a Test Repository Path. When not setting a path on creation the issue will automatically put into the "Orphans" path. I already tried using the function from the XRay documentation like:

issue in testRepositoryFolderTests('KEY','Orphans')

but it did not work. I tried with empty, null and '' instead of Orphans but this did not work either. For Test Sets there is a special function but for the repo. path there is not.
My last attempt was to query with the custom field number, but Jira did not find the custom field.

Hi @Flummiboy 

it´s kinda awkward and really annoying. That is indeed not working. I kinda got a workaround with the following query:

project = <yourProject> and issue not in testRepositoryFolderTests("<yourProjectKEY>", "")

Hope this solves your problem.

hi @Stefan Salzl is there a ways for me to use 

testRepositoryFolderTests

in cloud xray? what I want to do in my JQL query is to search for test cases under s specific folder in test repository.

Hi @Jonamei Basijan - welcome to the community,

unfortunately enhanced JQL queries are not available in cloud version (according to documentation):
