Segments don't get expanded from Zephyr

Hi, I have test cases in Zephyr which are automated in Reflect. I have gone into Reflect and made the Login part of my tests into a segment (the entire purpose of segments). I then did a sync back to Zephyr to update my Test, which it did.

But...now, when I execute a test from Zephyr, only a single static line is run in the test (segment title) and the segment is not expanded. Of course the case fails. It also updates the Test in Reflect with the single line and removes the segment so I have to fix it every time.

I have not been able to find any settings or information on how this should work or what to do to fix this.

    It seems the issue you're experiencing with Zephyr test cases automated in Reflect, where segments are not expanding during execution, is related to the integration behaviour between Reflect and Zephyr Scale. Here are the key points:

    Segments in Reflect: Steps defined inside segments do not appear in Zephyr after synchronisation; only top-level steps are synced. This is the current expected behaviour of the integration.

    Test Execution in Reflect: When executing a test suite in Reflect, a new Zephyr Test Cycle is created for each run, rather than updating an existing cycle.

    Troubleshooting Steps:

    • Check the test steps in Reflect to identify any unsupported actions or mismatched expected results.
    • Edit these steps and re-run the test.
    • If the issue persists, consider manually recording the action for the problematic step and resuming execution. This will synchronise the changes back to Zephyr.

    This behaviour has been recorded as feedback for future consideration. If you need further assistance or have additional questions, feel free to let me know!
