Custom Fields
Define project-specific custom attributes for your requirements, test cases, and test sets. You can use the custom fields as object attributes that help you to further categorize or prioritize.
- Only Administrators can create and configure custom fields.
- Custom fields are project-specific and apply only to the object type for which they have been defined.
- Custom field defined for objects synchronized from 3rd party applications are not added to Test Manager. For example, if you have synchronized a Jira requirement for which you had defined a custom field, you will not see an entry in the Details tab of your object, in Test Manager.
- Custom field names must be unique and are limited to 20 characters.
- Custom fields are applied to existing and newly created objects.
- Deleted custom fields are still applied to your existing objects. The value is set to free-form text and it does not retain any previously defined value. Deleting the value flags the custom field with an asterisk symbol.
Working with Custom Fields
To understand how custom fields can help you, consider a scenario in which you want to assess the risk type, and define a custom field to support your decision. Now, you can identify and label a specific object based on the risk type.
