Overview

The advanced search functionality of JIRA Jira supports using structured queries in Atlassian's JIRA Jira Query Language (JQL) to search for issues. The results are displayed as a list of issues in the Jira issue navigator. Test Management for JIRA Jira provides additional JQL functions to search for issues contained in T4J specific entities such as test plans or definition trees. Advanced queries, including those using T4J functions, can be saved for public or private reuse. They can also be used for filtering or adding issues to definition trees.
