    @GregL has mentioned the Query Text parameter in doc:Build and test integration queries – Azure DevOps | Microsoft Learn. Here is using example to understand the conception well.

    1 create query based suit in Test Plans menu.
    query based suit

    2 config filters and create suite .(query work items based on field Work Item Type match with group Microsoft.TestCaseCategory)

    config filters

    Note: you can transform to WIQL syntax and it is Query text. Refer to doc:WIQL

    select 
[System.Id], 
[System.WorkItemType], 
[System.Title], 
[Microsoft.VSTS.Common.Priority],
 [System.AssignedTo], 
[System.AreaPath] 
from WorkItems 
where [System.TeamProject] = @project 
and [System.WorkItemType] in group 'Microsoft.TestCaseCategory'

    3 query work items base on a filed Query Text match with a previous value [System.Title] or other word included in query text in step 2. Path:Board->Queries->New Query
    query
