Creating a New Test Case

To create a new test case:

  1. With a test open, click the New button to the right of the Test Case field.

  2. Enter a name for the new test case.

  3. (Optional) In the Test Case Descr field, enter a description for the test case.

  4. (Optional) Click the Test Case Properties icon to enter a long description of the test case.

    It is a good practice to provide a good description for a test case. Test case names are limited in length and provide the user with little information.

  5. (Optional) Click the Test Case Comment icon to add a comment for the test case or insert timestamp.

    For details, see Test Window Fields

  6. The new test case provides a set of new, empty Value fields for all the steps of the test.

    Enter a new value for each step that requires a value.

  7. Save the test case.

This example illustrates a new test case with blank values.
