Telerik: a possible workaround is to open the Test Studio project in Visual Studio and use VS code search - it will find all text values that contain the search, not only in code, but also in test steps, like value, description, etc. - please see attached picture.

Yes, that will work if we have a specific element per page per project.  
Often time, we have the same text in multiple elements.  I'm hoping there is an easy way to search.

It sounds like you need to locate the test using a specific element. This is possible via the UsedBy option for an element, scroll down here:

My ask is to be able to search a specific text within a project and multiple projects preferably.  
For instance let's say there is 'abcd' text in one of the drop-down options, and one day  the text option 'abcd' needs to be modified to 'xyz'.  I would like to know how to locate which test to modify.  
I've tried with windows explore, search within Project in Test Studio, NotePad++, etc, but I cannot locate any.  If there is a functionality to do it, I'd like to know.

Hi,

I'm not sure I understand this request. According to the communication from the support ticket:

"We frequently have a need to search on a certain text and/or comment to find test conditions."

Searching a test within project explorer searches in the scope of the opened project. Or in other words if a test is located within the folder structure of a project, it IS part of the project, unless explicitly excluded by the user. This is how Test Studio works today.

Is this feedback about changing this functionality and if so, why (what is the benefit)?

Thanks!
