Members can attach images to any comment on a defect or test case. Images are processed to WebP format, stored securely, and displayed as thumbnails in the comment thread.
Attaching an image
There are two ways to attach an image when composing or editing a comment:
Attach button — Click the paperclip icon next to the comment composer. A file picker opens; select one or more PNG, JPEG, or WebP images.
Paste — Copy an image to your clipboard (for example, from a screenshot tool), then click inside the comment text area and press ⌘V (macOS) or Ctrl+V (Windows/Linux). The image is staged immediately and a thumbnail appears below the text area.
Both methods can be combined — you can paste an image and then add another via the attach button.
Staged and committed attachments
Attached images are staged before the comment is saved. A thumbnail strip below the text area shows all staged images. Each thumbnail has an × button to remove it before posting.
When you click Comment (or Save when editing), all staged images are committed to permanent storage alongside the comment body.
Viewing attached images
Committed attachment thumbnails appear directly below each comment body. Click a thumbnail to open the lightbox for a full-size view.
Removing an attachment in edit mode
When you click Edit on one of your own comments, existing attachments are shown with remove controls. Click the × on any thumbnail to mark it for removal. Click Save to apply the change — the selected attachments are deleted from storage and will no longer appear on the comment.
