Refresh an element so its new tooltip shows (in jQuery/Javascript)
try this way
Demo :
http://jsfiddle.net/dreamweiver/9z404crn/
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#example').tooltip();
$('#example').on('click', function() {
$(this).attr('data-original-title', 'changed tooltip');
$('#example').tooltip();
$(this).mouseover();
});
});h3 {
margin-top: 50px;
}<h3>

<i class="icon-info-sign" data-toggle="tooltip" title="first tooltip" id='example'></i>

Above logic works only with Bootstrap version 2.3.2 and below, however, the solution provided by @NabiK.A.Z's would work with the latest versions of Bootstrap lib.
Happy Coding:)
You can use this code:
var newTooltip = 'Changed this tooltip!';
$('#example').attr('data-original-title', newTooltip).parent().find('.tooltip-inner').html(newTooltip);
I test it with bootstrap 3.3.4
You can see it here:
http://jsfiddle.net/NabiKAZ/a4WwQ/1029/
$('a[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip({
animated: 'fade',
placement: 'bottom',
});
$('.mytooltip').hover(function() {
$('.mytooltip').tooltip('show');
});
$('.mytooltip').click(function() {
var newTooltip = 'Changed this tooltip!';
$(this).attr('data-original-title', newTooltip).parent().find('.tooltip-inner').html(newTooltip);
});.cart {
overflow: hidden;
padding: 10px 3px;
background: yellow;
}<div class="cart">
<a data-toggle="tooltip" title="add to cart" class="mytooltip">
<i class="icon-shopping-cart"></i>
</a>
</div>
<br>
<div>
<a data-toggle="tooltip" title="add to another cart" class="mytooltip">
<i class="icon-shopping-cart"></i>
</a>
</div>

Most answers above updated the content of the $(element).parent().find('.tooltip-inner').html("This is a test"); generated by the tooltip plugin. However with BS5 the generated template for the tooltip has a unique ID which can be used to update the tooltip.
This example demonstrates a simple scenario: when the .copy_queue_id div is clicked, queue ID from its attribute is copied and hence the the tooltip is updated to notify the user
HTML Markup:
<div class="cursor-pointer text-primary copy_queue_id" data-queueid="123456" data-bs-toggle="tooltip" data-bs-placement="bottom" title="Click to copy"> 123456</small>
JS - JQuery
$(document).on('click', '.copy_queue_id', function(){
let node = $(this);
let id = node.data('queueid');
navigator.clipboard.writeText(id);
let tooltipid = node.attr('aria-describedby');
$("#"+tooltipid).find('.tooltip-inner').html('ID Copied!!');
})
Tested & works in BS5 Hope this helps others :)
For me in bootstrap 4 this worked:
$("#xxx").tooltip("dispose").attr("title", "New Tooltip").tooltip()
