Link a bug to test case

Daiane 8 years ago updated by AnaMarques 8 years ago 2

I saw I have a option into test run, click in "Report a bug", but would be more interesting if I could link a test case to bug in the bug view, when I click on "Report Bug" in the home view. That way i wouldn't need to navigate to test case/test run to create a linked bug. :)


Sorry about my English, I'm brazilian.

Hi Daiane,


Thank you for the suggestion!


If I understood it correctly, it implies that all testers remember every single test case and that when they report a bug, they think "I should link this to a test case"


It feels unlikely that most testers would know all of the test cases from memory, no?

I agree with Daiane.


I think that the test case should be an optional field.

When I report a bug from a test case at a test run, the test case is associated with the bug. 

When I'm doing tests, usually I'm following the steps from my test case, so I should know what test case I'm testing.


It would be very useful for traceability. Also sometimes I would only test a resolved bug when all bugs from a test case are solved so that I can say that my test case has passed or failed.


It should also be possible to filter test case when searching for bugs.


Best regards,

Ana Marques
