Need Support for Batch Copying Test Sessions

Currently there is no supported feature to copy multiple test sessions. Is there a workaround for this, perhaps a trigger a custom user action I could develop? Any ideas would be appreciated.

 

Specifically, I'd like to select multiple test sessions and copy them with the same or default fields (doesn't really matter, will be batch edited later).

Yes, the answer helped to clarify the ability to batch copy is available. I ended up creating a .js trigger which created test sessions based on an item list. I wasn't able to implement a java version using custom actions, but this solution works fine for my needs.

Hi Keleb,

usually, I solve such tasks with a small custom program, written in Java. The Java code will read the selected items (Test Sessions), and can copy them easily. The beauty with this approach would be to be able to make also specific corrections or additions, such as setting dedicated fields to special values (e.g. the state), or validating additional fields if they fulfill certain rules before copying them.

To code the Java program, you will need a developer with specific Integrity coding knowledge.

Hope this helps.
