Definition Tree - ExportClick on the Export button to open the export menu.
Select an export format from the list to export the definition tree content to.
The exported content depends on the type of the item currently selected.
An applied filter also affects the exported content. The following tables describe the export content in each format depending on issue type and applied filter. Since the XML export provides information that can be used to integrate another application with T4J via its REST API a complete example export file is provided.
The example file is the result of an export with the root folder of the definition tree selected and no filter applied. It covers the structure of the root item, a folder item and a test item.
Note that there's no example export for Excel and Word since those export formats are mostly used for internal documentation purposes. Therefore a textual description of the content should be sufficient. XML | Type of the selected tree item | Content | Filter applied | | Test item | Detailed information about the selected test item including item ids that can be used for REST API calls. | |
| Contains the same information stated above. | | | Tree folder | Contains no information except for the following items: <trees><tree/></trees> | |
| Detailed information about the selected tree folder and all subsequent folders and contained test items. | | | Root folder or nothing selected | Detailed information of the root folder. | |
| The content is equivalent to the content when selecting a tree folder just with the root folder as top level element. | |
