Qualitia Automation Studio (OASQAS) lets you import test cases from another project to cover similar testing scenarios in your project.

Point to Know
After a test case is imported:
If the test case name matches with an existing test case in the current project, the imported test case name is appended with _N, where N is a number that is incremented by 1 if there are multiple test case cases with the same name.
For example, if a test case called “login” is present in both, the imported and the current project, then after importing the test case, it is named as “login_1” in the current project. If a test case with a name “login_1” already exists in the current project, then it is named as “login_2”, and so on.If an object name matches with an existing object in the current project, the imported object name in the current project is appended with _N, where N is a number that is incremented by 1 if there are multiple tasks with the same name.For example, if a button called "Submit" already exists in the current project, and you import a task that contains a Submit button, then this object is named as Submit_1 in the current project.
If an object with a name “Submit_1” already exists in the current project, then it is named as “Submit_2”, and so on.Similarly, if an environment variable name in the import imported project matches with an existing environment variable name in the current project, but their value differs. Then, after the test case is imported, the values differ, the imported environment variable name is will be appended with _1 after the test case is imported.
The imported custom actions along with their parameters are displayed in the Test Case Editor screen. However, you need to manually copy all the external files and codes of the imported custom actions to execute them.
In case of desktop projects, if the TSR file is different for import and current projects, then after importing the tasks the current project updates will update its TSR file with the additional by adding new objects and replaces the replacing existing values for the same objects associated with the imported tasks from the TSR file of import project. Alsomatching objects after importing the tasks. Additionally, when you synchronize the TSR file for any other project that shares the same TSR file with the current project, the TSR file for other project is updated too.
You can use the Search feature to find a task by its name, its associated test case names, and associated test scenario names.
If the imported task contains rest header variable, the rest header should be copied manually from the source project to the target project.
Import a Test Case
To import a test case:
Login Log in to QAS - Client.
Access Develop from left navigation to view the Test Explorer screen.
Select the current project for which you want to import the test case from the top menu.
Now, access Import from left navigation to view the Imports screen.
Select the import project from where you want to import the test case using the Project dropdown (below the hamburger menu or the menu with three horizontal lines).
Once the import project is set, select Test Cases.
Under Test Cases, there are three sections.
New: Thetest cases that are part of the import project and are have never been imported to the current project are listed in this section. These test cases can be imported if required.
Conflicted: If the test cases are imported and later any changes are made to those test cases, either in the import project or the current project, they will appear under the Conflicted section.
Matching: The test cases that are imported without making any changes to the existing test cases, in import as well as the current project, can be viewed under this section. When a test case is imported, it will be directly moved from the New sectionto the Matching section.
To import, select the test case and click Import.
You will see a message Do you want to import Test Case alongwith the options Without Data and With Data. Select Without Data or With Data depending on if you don’t want or if you want to import the test data. Then click Confirm to continue.
After clicking Confirm, a pop-up window will appear with Select Scenario to import Test Case message and a drop-down to select a scenario. Select Scenario and click Confirm to continue.
Once the import is complete click Finish.
You have successfully imported a test case.

Login to QAS - Client.
Access Develop from left navigation to view the Test Explorer screen.
Select the current project for which you want to import the test case from the top menu.
Now, access Import from left navigation to view the Imports screen.
A list of test cases under New, Conflicted, and Matching is displayed.
Under Conflicted, click the test case that you want to import.
Both the imported test case and the current test case opens open in the main pane.You can know the differences between these two test cases in the following ways:
Steps marked in red color and red icon indicate that they will be removed from the current test case after the test case is imported.
Steps marked in green color and green icon indicate that they will be added to the current test case after the test case is imported.
Objects, custom actions, and parameters marked in red color indicate that their values are different, which will be replaced after the test case is imported.
Steps marked in with a minus sign indicate that parameter values are different, which will be replaced after the test case is imported.
In the left pane, you can see the Current Test Case and in the right Imported Test Case.
Compare the changes and click Import from the top-right corner if you want to import the updated test case.
Clicking Import will open an Import Test Case pop-up. Click Confirm to continue; otherwise, Discard.
