Enable test case item

If testers need more formatting options when they edit their test cases, specifically for steps, a WYSIWYG editor that is similar to the one used in most item Description fields is available.

Note

You must have organization admin permissions to complete this task.

Important considerations
  • When you disable rich text, no data is lost, but images and rich text are replaced with HTML tags. Users don’t see any existing steps break and the content is still rendered. The user must decide which formatting tags to remove.

  • The application doesn’t automatically strip tags, and renders correct HTML tags in steps with or without the rich text mode enabled.

  • To hide the test case status from view, see Hide test case status field.

To enable test case item:

  1. Select Admin > Organization, then select Item types.

  2. Select the item type you want to use, which is a Test Case type.

  3. In the right panel, select the Steps field, then select the Edit pencil icon.

    The Item types page shows that the Edit action in the toolbar is selected for the Steps item type.
  4. In the Edit field window that opens, select Allow Rich Text to enable the feature.

    The Edit field window shows the three options are selected for the field label Steps.
  5. Select Save.
