TestCollab allows you to integrate ClickUp as your defect management tool. Once configured, you can create and link ClickUp tasks directly from TestCollab while executing test cases, ensuring seamless tracking between testing and development.
What You Can Do with ClickUp Integration
After setting up the integration, you will be able to:
Create ClickUp tasks directly from failed test cases
Link existing ClickUp tasks to test cases
View linked defects lists inside TestCollab
Other users can link their ClickUp account to set themselves as the reporter.
Prerequisites
Before setting up the integration, ensure that:
You have an active ClickUp account
You have access to the ClickUp Workspace and Space where defects will be created
You are a Project Administrator in TestCollab
Step 1: Enable ClickUp as Defect Manager in TestCollab
Go to Settings > Defects in the project where you want to integrate.
Select ClickUp from the list of available issue managers.
Click Signin to ClickUp.
Step 2: Authorize ClickUp
You will be redirected to ClickUp to authorize access.
Log in to your ClickUp account if prompted.
Review the requested permissions.
Select the workspace to connect with
Click Connect Workspace to allow TestCollab to connect with your ClickUp workspace.
Once authorized, you will be redirected back to TestCollab.
Step 3: Configure ClickUp Settings
After successful authorization:
Select the appropriate Workspace.
Choose the Space, Folder or List where defects should be created.
Map ClickUp fields (optional), you can also set if these fields should be shown on report defect page.
Save the configuration.
Field mapping ensures that defect details from TestCollab are correctly transferred to ClickUp tasks.
Advanced Settings
While running test case, if a defect is pushed as a result of a failure, by default all the steps of the test case are included in the reported defect's description. If you want to include only the executed steps then you can enable "Push executed steps only"
Creating a ClickUp Task from a Test Case
Once the integration is active:
Start executing a test case in a test plan.
If a test step fails, click Fail & Report Bug icon.
Check the required details like title and description.
Other fields if selected during configuration will also be shown and their values can be set.
Click Create Defect.
A task will be created in ClickUp and automatically linked to the failed test case.
This will add a new task in Clickup workspace.
You can also link an existing ClickUp task instead of creating a new one.
Viewing and Managing Linked Defects
Linked ClickUp tasks appear on Defects tab of executed test case view.
You can click the task ID to open it directly in ClickUp.
Connecting other user's Clickup accounts
Other users in your team can also link their Clickup account to become a reporter for tasks pushed at the time of test case failure.
Conclusion
The ClickUp defect management integration streamlines the process of reporting and tracking bugs directly from your test execution workflow. By connecting TestCollab with ClickUp, teams can reduce manual effort, improve collaboration, and maintain complete visibility from test failure to resolution.
