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

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.
