How can I make a new test version status "Draft" initially?
How can I make a new test version status "Draft" initially? For now it's just copies a previous test case version status. This can be confusing since new test case versions have to be reviewed/approved and this steps can be missed because of the previous status copy.
It's a good point of debate. Unfortunately there's no way to set what the default status is when a test case/version is created. You could contact SmartBear and suggest it's a bug and see what they say - that might get a fix in the roadmap earlier than the alternative which is to post it as an idea on the roadmap portal.
As to workarounds I realise it's not a great solution, but here are some options in cases where someone has forgotten to change the status to Draft:
- Sort by version number descending and multi-select what you think are issues*
- Sort by Created Date field descending and multi-select what you think are issues*
- Filter for test cases on a specific date and multi-select what you think are issues*
* Then, with the issues selected go to the More menu > Edit in Bulk > and change the Status
