Description
Description:
When changing the Test Type via the Test Details section, a warning message is correctly shown: "The current type info details will be deleted. Do you want to continue?"
However, when changing the Test Type in the Details section of an Issue Type Test, the same warning is NOT displayed and the Test Step data (Action, Data, Expected Results) is silently deleted without any user confirmation.
This inconsistency poses a risk of unintentional data loss for users who manage their Test Type from the Details section.
This issue occurs regardless of which Xray version is used.
How to reproduce
- Add a Test Type custom field to the Details section of the Test issue type.
- Set the Type to Manual under the Test Details section.
- Add data into the Test Steps (Action, Data, and Expected Results).
- Change the Type to Cucumber or Generic under the Test Details section — a warning message appears: "The current type info details will be deleted. Do you want to continue?" Click Cancel.
- Now change the Test Type from Manual to Cucumber or Generic using the Details section the Test Step data is lost without any warning message.
