Attachments

Attachments in the workspace provide a comprehensive overview of the files that have been uploaded and attached to Qase.

To provide your teammates with additional context, you can attach various files in Qase. In fact, there are several entities and places in Qase where attachments can be added.

Note: A single attachment cannot exceed 32 MB.

Usage:

You can attach files to

  • A Test Case (new or already existing)

  • An existing Test Case Review and Steps-to-reproduce of such Test Case (if any attachments were added upon initial configuration of a Test Case before sending to review, such attachments would be automatically added to a review as well)

  • A Regular Step of a Test Case (at the moment when creating it, or at a later point)
