    No,l re-named on the functional tests level. l cloned the test suite re-named, saved the, TCs vanished...Only APIs were visible. Is there a way one can retrieve tests from the logs history and run them in the suite?

    stellam when you say you renamed project and test suites, you renamed them from within ReadyAPI or outside of it (via Windows Explorer for example). Is it a single project file or a composite project that is affected?

      Thanks for the response. I did all the changes in the Ready API tool. I don know if its possible to find the project l had on 2023/04/18 for l had put alot of effort with assertions n test data.

    Right so you renamed down at this level.

     

    And now you are saying that you have no Test Suites or Test Cases like below

    You may need to provide an image to help clarify.

    You are in the correct 'Workspace' right?

    It's an issue I think starting from ReadyAPI 3.44.0. 
    When a testSuite is cloned in a composite project, it's created a new testSuite but the old one is removed. 

    I need to go manually and edit element.order and project.content files in order to keep both of them.
