Manual Test Cases - Execution
Easily execute groups of test cases and their test stepsTesters can follow the directions and check if the system behaves as expected.If needed, a new incident can be logged – linked to a test step failure

Test Planning - Test Sets
Optionally group test cases into test sets
Test sets can be assigned as a ‘package’ to a tester or automation hosts

Test Run Tracking
Every time you execute a test case, SpiraTest records every pass / failure as well as the associated incidents generated as a ‘Test Run’.Archived Test Runs can be reviewed to see if changes have introduced failures to previously working functionality.

Incident / Defect Tracking
Create, edit, assign, track, manage, and close incidents (bugs, issues, risks, defects, enhancements) raised during testing.
