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.
