New feature suggestion

[cveen]

It would be great if following features could be included in a future version;
1) Assign a testcase to a tester (In this way you can assign a workload)

2) Set an order of testcases to be executed

3) Set a dependancy on previous testcase(s). ("this test case(s) must be performed correctly before you can perform this next testcase.")
And filter on this crtitical path.

I strongly agree with #2 (Set an order of testcases to be executed)
The only way to order the test cases now is to actually number a field so that they sort correctly. This becomes a large problem when you want to add a test case in the middle of a suite later. Renaming them all is very tedious if you have a large amount of cases.

We have decided to create new test suites if we have more than 20 test cases in 1 test suite. Each suite has a sequence number up front. Further more our test cases are named after the test suite (without the sequence number) followed by a 3 digit number (with increments of 10). This can be set up via the settings option. You can let TestLog renumber if you want to. This takes care of sequence issues for us (so far).

Providing the test cases use a naming scheme with the number at the end of the filename if you right click on a test case in the list there is an "Insert new test case" option, this will create a new test case with the name of the one highlighted and rename the items that are after it.


Dependency is something that would be a little complex, especially when deleting/moving/renaming items as all the existing test cases would need to be checked for dependencies each time one of these operations takes place. That said we'll add it to the list of requested features.
