There are two tabs: Step Detail and Executions

• Steps Detail: You can add new test steps and edit existing test steps from the Story details page. Expand the test case and open the Step Detail tab. The section is editable wherein you can add new steps or make changes in the existing details of steps. The changes are reflected in the Test Case module.

Executions: You can see how many Test Cycles have been executed for the Test Case with their latest execution result. Defects, if logged while test execution, are also displayed along with the execution result.

Expand the test case and open the Executions tab.

The grid displays the following columns:

• Test Cycle Summary: Test Cycle to which the test case was associated with.

If defects are linked while execution, the defect count is displayed under the Defects column.

To view the logged defects for the test case, click on the defect count. It opens the Link Defects screen.

To view the linked defects in Jira, click View in Issue Navigator. It enables testers to navigate to the Jira Issue search quickly.

3. The Execution Result cell is clickable. Open the drop-down and select the Execution Result you want to assign to the test case.
