Reply to: HP QC grrrrr pile of tulipe

'Test Management' tools are nonsense. There are test cases and there are bugs. You don't need test management tools; you need to make, maintain and run cases, report bugs, track bugs and run out a test report showing what has passed and what has failed. The rest is either superfluous tulip or you can put it in excel.

God bless Cucumber (the tool not the vegetable)

Actually I have used Mantis, Redmine and Jira but I tend to think of them as bug tracking tools not specifically Test Management tools

I share your hatred for QC, but having used various other TM tools I'm forced to conclude it's the least worst one I've used.

No. I know how to use it. That's why I know that it's a heap of poo.

My arse You'd be on the internet not doing any work if us TMs weren't stressing the importance of run rates and daily stats for stakeholders

Given I that I create automation frameworks, I do believe your notion of work is a bit outdated seeing as all I have to do is push run and then check the results at the end
