    Hi Sheilagh,

     

    There are two different CSV layouts that can be imported, controlled by a system setting: one where each row represents a single test, with Steps in one cell, or one where each row represent a step within a test (Importing and Exporting Tests). It looks like, currently, you have the second one. So, you can modify your imported CSV file, or change the import profile.

     

    If you use On-Premise edition of QAC, you may change the import profile in System Preferences

    To change the import profile setting, click Setup at the upper right of the menu bar and go to System Configuration > System Preferences. Use the Quick Search to find "ImportTestSteps-LineBreaks" in the Code field. Change the value from N to Y.

     

    If you use SaaS edition of QAC, please contact Support to change the import profile.
