    99This plugin implements a full test management life-cycle: definition, planning, execution, statistics.

    11 This plugin can be used to create '''[wiki:TestManagerForTracPlugin#TestCases Test Cases]''', organize them in [wiki:TestManagerForTracPlugin#TestCatalogs Catalogs] and generate '''[wiki:TestManagerForTracPlugin#TestPlans Test Plans]''' to track their execution status and outcome.

    1313This plugin uses Wiki pages and an additional data model to store Test Cases, rather than tickets. This allows you to separate your tickets from your test findings, while still being powered by the Trac search engine and formatting syntax for Wiki pages.
     
    2929 * Test cases, catalogs and plans can have their own '''custom properties''', defined in `trac.ini` like tickets. All property types are supported: text, text area, listbox, radio buttons, checkbox.
    3030 * Defining '''custom test outcomes (statuses)''', in addition to the built-in "Untested", "Success", "Failed".
    31  * Test execution '''statistical charts''', showing the overall testing activity, status of the test plans, statistics on the tickets opened agains all or a specific test plan. '''Exporting the data to CSV'''.
     31 * Test execution '''statistical charts''', showing the overall testing activity, status of the test plans, statistics on the tickets opened against all or a specific test plan, using [http://www.flotcharts.org/ Flot] (MIT licensed). '''Exporting the data to CSV'''.
    3232 * Choosing between Tree and Tabular view of the test catalogs or test plans, and the contained test cases.
    3333 * In the tabular view, choosing which columns to display, including any custom property, and the ability to add '''calculated rows''', such as sums, averages, min or max.

    353 Trac plugin developers may be insterested in the fact that a '''[wiki:TestManagerForTracPluginApi#GettingalltheTicketsrelatedtoaTestCase programmatic Python API]''' is provided to retrieve all of the Tickets opened against a Test Case, in all or in a specific Test Plan.
