General Preferences

AIO Tests allows you to customize the default issue type to use while creating a defect at the Run or Step level from the Cycle details page. The test management tool not only allows users to select their default Gherkin language but also allows them to specify if they wish to add any AIO fields to the description of the defect created. This gives users more flexibility while creating defects from AIO Tests.

In this documentation, you’ll understand:
