    Hi tradam,

    Zephyr works on a jira project itself. There is no separate zephyr project as such. Like any other issue types zephyr creates an issue type Test which can be associated to any project. Issue Type test can be used to carry out all the zephyr related functions.

    So you have to have the test cases distributed across all the projects in which you need to use them. A simple approach would be to create the test cases in one project, have the same exported and imported in all the other projects.

    All the best!

That makes sense. Thanks for the quick reply. I'll muck around a bit more and circle back if I have any further questions.
