How do you restore a deleted Folder and the Test Cases that were in it?

I deleted a folder that contained 170 test cases. Now my user wants them back. How do I restore the folder and test cases?

Hi,

     One of my users has done something similar and accidentally deleted 2 folders. Did you ever get an answer to this question or do we need to get SmartBear to carry out the restore?

 

Thanks,

 

Bill.

Hello Steve and Bill,

 

If you delete a folder in QAComplete, the data in the folder is NOT deleted . The folder name is simply removed from the records, and you will find your records in the “root” section with no folder name. You will need to create/add the Folder again and after that you can use Fast Edit to move the records from one folder to another.

 

Thank you,
Christiane

    Thanks Christiane, we've found the "homeless" test scripts and are currently moving them back into the new versions of the folders.
