# Duplicating Tests

You can use the same method for copying or duplicating an entire Cycle, Folder, or Business Process

**From within a Project -**

1. Hover over the **Tests tab** and then select **Tree view.** **![](https://cdn.document360.io/f404076c-de23-4609-848e-2dfd4ef701b0/Images/Documentation/image-1722256688125.png)**
2. Locate the relevant Test, Folder, Business Process, or Cycle in the Tree and **right-click** on it.
3. Select to **Duplicate** or **Copy**. If you select **Duplicate**, the duplicated Test(s) will appear under the exact location in the Tree (Cycle, Folder, Business Process).

**Good to Know!**

- The copied Test will not include previous run evidence
- You can then use **Drag and Drop** in the Tree to move **Tests**, **Folders** and **Business Processes**

**Regulated?** When copying a Test from a **Regulated Cycle to a Regulated Cycle** - e-signatures and Reviewed status will remain When copying a Test from a **Regulated Cycle to a Non-Regulated Cycle** - e-signatures will be removed, and Reviewed status will remain When copying a Test from a **Non-Regulated Cycle to a Regulated Cycle** - Reviewed Tests will return to Not Reviewed state
