8900,"Add ability to articulate test plans on two dimensions, e.g. test cases and platforms",seccanj,seccanj,"Add a third dimension in addition to Test Case and Test Plan, to identify a particular test case instance, for example the platform, or the device.

Which is to say that, inside a single Test Plan, you wouldn't have just one dimension, the Test Case, but also a second dimension, the platform.

So, let's say the use cases would be the following:
[[BR]]

'''Add a Test Variation Dimension''' (any ideas for a better name?)
[[BR]]
1. The User enters the Admin panel [[BR]]
2) Selects ""Test Variation Dimensions"" [[BR]]
3) Trac asks for a Dimension Name, defaulted to ""Device"" (or ""Platform"") [[BR]]
4) The User can add one or more values for the Dimension, much like it does for ticket statuses, milestones, etc. He can also remove any existing values. [[BR]]


'''Associate a test catalog to a Test Variation Dimension'''
[[BR]]
1) From a test catalog, the User selects from a listbox the desired ""Variation Dimension"" [[BR]]


'''Display the status of test cases in plan, which has a Variation Dimension'''
[[BR]]
1) From a test catalog, the User clicks on the desired Test Plan [[BR]]
2) Being the catalog associated with another dimension, the Test Plan page is in the form of a table, not a tree, with Test Cases in the rows and the associated Dimension values in the columns. In each cell, a red/yellow/green semaphore will display the current test case status. Initially, all test cases will be in the ""To be tested"" (yellow) status. [[BR]]
3) The User clicks on one of the semaphores and changes the status of a Test Case for the particular dimension value (e.g. platform). [[BR]]
