Organizing Items with Folders

Use folders to organize items in TestTrack. Folders can help you manage products, releases, iterations, backlogs, and teams more effectively. You can create a hierarchical folder structure to visually represent and manage any part of a project.

To work with folders, click Folders. From the Folders list, you can manage existing folders and items in them, and create new folders. See Using the Folders list. In the Folders list, you can view a list of items in a folder, subfolders in a folder, or a task board, which is a more visual, interactive view of folder contents. See Using task boards.

A folder can contain any combination of issues, requirements, requirement documents, test cases, and test runs. An item can also be added to multiple folders. Adding items to a folder tags a group of related items, which is useful for reporting and filtering on items of different types. See Adding items to folders.

Folders can be public or private. Public folders can be accessed by other users and are helpful for organizing items for your team. Access to public folders can be limited to specific security groups. Private folders cannot be accessed by other users and are helpful for organizing items related to your work. See Adding folders.

Note: See Folder usage examples for examples of using folders to organize items.
