Summary Description

Reporting

Ability to report test progress at a release level

To allow continued reporting on the "health" of a

release

Ability to report test progress at a project or SR level (work effort)

To allow the QA PM to effectively manage the work

effort

Ability to report test progress at an application level

To allow the QA PM to effectively identify specific

application issues

Ability to create linked fields

To ensure consistent use of the tool, we need to

link fields such as Domain and App to ensure there

are no mismatches and therefore reporting errors

Ability to create shared "master" lists across all projects/tools

To ensure consistency across projects or tools.

For example, list of apps should be consistent

throughout, minimizes maintenance.

Ability to create multi-select fields

To reduce work effort and duplication of effort by

allowing one test case to cover more then one test

type, etc.

Ability to create "Mandatory" fields

To ensure consistent use of the tool, we need to

make certain fields Mandatory

Ability to set release "Goals" in the tool

Viewing/Managing Assets

Ability to re-use test assets across releases

To increase productivity and ensure assets do not

need to be recreated release after release

Ability to re-use test assets across projects/srs (work efforts)

To increase productivity and ensure assets do not

need to be recreated from project to project

Ability to store test data in a manner that promotes re-use

To increase productivity and ensure assets do not

need to be recreated

Ability to make functions grayed out or invisible if not being used

To make the tool easier to use and prevent any

unproductive work using work items and sections

of the tool that are not valid.

Ability to define custom workflow to set desired process to follow

More efficient use of the tool. Custom workflow

rules assist users in desired or defined process.

Ability to view all test assets for a specific project/sr (work effort)

Ability to view all test assets for a specific application

Summary DescriptionAbility to version test assets

Ability to restore archived assets

Ability for PQA and other auditors to view assets in the tool based

on project/SR and release

Ability to support any SDLC methodology (waterfall, agile, etc)

Test Planning

Ability to develop a Test Strategy directly in Tool

Ability to develop Test Plan directly in Tool

Ability to view test execution status (pass, failed etc) for a specific

test plan while viewing a test plan

Test Tool Administration

Ability to add users to the tool and specific projects within the tool

Ability to limit users access priviledge through role based access

Ability to maintain/manage projects through a template

(change/add in one place, reflects in all projects and stays in

sync)

Would like the ability to maintain/manage multiple

projects through a template. When you make a

change to the template, the changes are reflected

in all projects based off the template. (change/add

a field in one project, the change is reflected in all

projects and stays in sync) Helps lower

maintenance time as well as maintaining

consistency

Test Execution

Ability to execute both automated and manual tests within

the tool

Ability to group test execution by release, project and application

Ability to continue execution where you left off

Ability to make "Actual Results" required only when a test step

fails.
