error while importing test cases from xlsx

I chose same Test name, but the description is different (pic er1). Since discriminator of test cases is Test Name, tests with the same Test Name have not been imported. Question: why?

 

Another missing import was when Test Names were very similar (pic er2; test in orange did not import).

    If two test cases have identical names but different descriptions, the system might treat them as duplicates and only import one of them. This could be why the test with the same name but a different description was not imported (pic er1).

    In the case where test names are very similar but not identical, the system might still consider them too similar and avoid importing one to prevent confusion or potential conflicts (pic er2).

    If you're receiving error messages during the import process, carefully review them to identify the specific cause of the problem. Error messages can provide valuable information about what went wrong and help guide your troubleshooting efforts.

  • Similar Test Names might also cause issues. It might be helpful to check the import settings to see if there's an option to include descriptions or handle similar names differently.
