Test Cases

A test case is the building block of Test Management. It describes one thing to verify: the action to take, the conditions it requires, and the result you expect. Every test case belongs to a Test Project and optionally to a Test Suite within that project.

​
Test case fields

​
Writing good test cases

Structure your description with three sections: 
**Preconditions**
- Logged in as a standard user
- Cart contains at least one item

**Steps**
1. Click "Checkout"
2. Fill in shipping address
3. Click "Place Order"

**Expected result**
Order confirmation page appears with correct order number.

​
Status lifecycle

DRAFT → READY → DEPRECATED
  • DRAFT — the case is still being written or reviewed. Excluded from runs.
  • READY — reviewed and approved. Included in the next run automatically.
  • DEPRECATED — retired case. Excluded from runs but preserved for history.
Only a Member or Owner can mark a case READY. This acts as a lightweight review gate.

​
Creating test cases

1

Open the test project

Navigate to the Space → Test Management → select the project.
2

Click New Case

Click + New Case in the top bar or press C with the case list focused.
3

Fill in the fields

Title and Type are required. Add description using the structured format above.
4

Mark READY when reviewed

Once the case has been reviewed, change status to READY to include it in future runs.

​
Cloning cases

Duplicate an existing case to create a variation: right-click the case in the list → Clone. The clone is created as DRAFT so it can be reviewed before being activated.

​
Importing cases

Bulk-import test cases from CSV: Project → Settings → Import → Upload CSV. Required columns: title, type, priority. Optional: description, suite.
