2. Manage Test Case Types

Types allow you to filter and organize test cases, making it easier to locate specific cases.

  • Open the Test Case Types page in Project Settings.
  • Use the predefined list of types or add your own based on your project needs (e.g., Approved, Pending Approval, Draft).
  • Set a default type for new test cases. 

Note: The Type assigned by default to a Test Case can be updated individually in the Test Case Details.

Tags help filter the test case list, enabling quick and easy navigation.

    • Rename tags to keep them relevant.
    • Delete tags that are no longer needed.

Note 1: Creating tags is available while editing a test case by typing into the ‘Tags’ field.

  • Navigate to Custom Fields in Project Settings.
  • Create up to 5 custom fields for your project:

    • Dropdown Fields: Define options for categorization.
  • Control visibility of fields on project pages:
    • Show or hide fields on the Test Cases and Test Plan pages.
    • Show or hide fields on the Test Run page.

Examples: Specify details such as devices, versions, browsers, and environments using custom fields.
