Import Test From Other Elements

You open the Testing window for the empty, target element and then select the source element that contains the tests to import.

Access    Select target element | Element | Testing | <test class> | Import tests from other element  or
Select target element | Element | Element Browser (Alt+9) > Testing folder | right-click on tests | Import tests from other element
