Test Case Management in JIRA #3

October 17th, 2009

Last but not least part of JIRA test case management tutorial, sorry for some time shift but when You provide new technology it accommodates for a while.

First let’s do some wrap-up:
Test Case Management in JIRA #1
Test Case Management in JIRA #2

Below You find last miles on the road to fine test case management in JIRA.

Statuses
Some statuses with some description and icons, add missing ones to your JIRA installation.

  • New
    When test case is created
  • Open
    When test case is waiting for planning
  • Dropped
    When test case is wrong or out of date
  • Planned
    When test case is ready to run
  • In Progress
    When test case is in tester hands
  • Reopened
    When test case must be changed due to functionality
  • Closed
    When test case is completed for current software version
  • Verification
    When test case is ready to verify by business owner or test manager
  • Pass
    When test case step is good and executed
  • Failed
    When test case step is bad and executed

Workflows

Test Case Workflow
Main workflow for our needs, eight steps shown below.
jira_test_case_workflow
and the diagram:

jira_test_casefinal1
After successful create we need to add it to test case issue type in JIRA workflow scheme.

Test Case Step Workflow
Three steps very simple but important:

jira_test_case_step_workflow
Test Case Result Workflow
Again very simple but important :) :
jira_test_case_result_workflow

Closing comments
Workflows need to be connected with issue types and screens then to projects etc. I already have these solutions working, so wait for tester and test manager comments.
Let me know your test case management solutions, especially in JIRA.
