Data Migration

Data Migration

Leverage your existing testing data with SpiraPlan. Using our Add-Ins for Microsoft Word, Excel and Project you can easily import requirements, test cases, releases and incidents from your existing templates. In addition SpiraPlan comes with an import wizard for easily migrating from HP Quality Center or Mercury TestDirector.

MS-Excel Data Import

The web-based interface of SpiraPlan® is ideal for creating and managing requirements, test cases and incidents for a new project. However when migrating requirements, test cases, test steps and incidents for an existing project from another system or Microsoft Office document (e.g. Excel), it is useful to be able to load in a batch of artifacts, rather than having to manually enter them one at a time.

To simplify this task, SpiraPlan® comes with a Microsoft Excel Add-In that can export requirements, test cases, test steps and incidents from a populated Excel sheet into SpiraPlan®. In addition, the Add-In allows you to import those same artifacts back into the Excel sheet to make batch updates which can then be used to update the master copies on the server.

Please refer to the documentation for more information.

MS-Word Data import

The web-based interface of SpiraPlan® is ideal for creating and managing requirements, test cases and incidents for a new project. However often an organization will often have existing requirements documentation and test case templates in Microsoft Word format that need to get easily migrated into SpiraPlan. To simplify this task, SpiraPlan® comes with a Microsoft Word Add-In that can export requirements and test cases from a populated Word document into SpiraPlan®.

Please refer to the documentation for more information.

MS-Project Data Import

The web-based interface of SpiraPlan® is ideal for creating and managing requirements, releases/iterations and tasks for a new project. However when migrating requirements and tasks from an existing project, it is useful to be able to load in an existing project plan in batch and have SpiraPlan be able to interpret the data. To simplify this task, SpiraPlan® comes with a Microsoft Project Add-In that can export requirements, releases and tasks from a populated MS-Project plan into SpiraPlan®. In addition, the Add-In allows you to import those same artifacts back into the MS-Project plan to make batch updates which can then be used to update the master copies on the server.
