Workspaces and Projects FAQs

1 min read

These answers explain how workspaces and projects are organized in Hawzu.


A workspace is the top-level area for projects, users, groups, roles, integrations, shared configuration, and workspace settings.

Hawzu provides a workspace when you sign up. Additional workspaces appear after invitation and acceptance.


A project is the focused testing area for an application, product, service, or delivery area.

Projects contain repository test cases, requirements, releases, executions, test runs, defects, labels, and project settings.


  1. Open a workspace from the Workspaces page.

  2. Go to the Projects page.

  3. Select Create Project and fill in the create-project window:

    • Project Name, required.
    • Project Code, exactly 3 characters.
    • Project Description, optional.
    • Optional project role assignments for workspace users.

Learn more in Creating a Project.


Project creation depends on workspace permissions. If Create Project is not available, ask a workspace administrator to review your role.


Yes. A workspace user can have access to one or more projects.

Access can come from direct project roles or inherited group access.


Can I remove project access without deleting a workspace user?

Section titled “Can I remove project access without deleting a workspace user?”

Yes. Direct project access can be removed without deleting the workspace user.

If the user still has inherited access from a group, remove the user from the group or remove the group’s project access.
