I figured it out myself :)



It seems that if you have a field on the TestCase that also exists on the Defect (same type and name), then any Defect created from a TestCase will have whatever value the testCase had, in that field.



F.x. on my TestCase I have a Choice Field called 'Developer', and I have the same on the Defect. If a TestCase fails and I let it auto-generate a Defect, then 'Developer' on the Defect contains the same value as it does on the Test Case.



Hidden feature?? ;) ... at least I could find no documentation on this.
