A suite is a group of tests (a tab in the old workbook). A case is one row: a script you can run again next release.
1

Create suite

Test Suites to Create suite. Name it like the spreadsheet tab: “Checkout,” not “Misc.” The list always creates a top-level suite.
2

Add First Case

Title a real user action: “Guest can complete checkout with a valid card.” Not “Checkout works.”
3

Fill only what you'll use

Description, preconditions, expected outcome, priority (low | medium | high | critical), module, tags, persona, estimate in minutes, status (draft | active | deprecated).
4

Add steps

Each step: instruction, expected result, notes, evidence required. That’s the procedure column split into something you can pass/fail.

A good first case

  • Title: Guest can complete checkout with a valid card
  • Preconditions: Staging URL from the environment. Empty cart. Test Visa from Acme’s sandbox sheet.
  • Steps: Open storefront to add in-stock SKU to checkout as guest to pay to see order number
  • Expected outcome: Order number shown; cart empty; no generic error
  • Priority: critical
  • Status: active
Vague and bloated examples: what is a case. Then create a cycle, include this case, Start a run. That’s the moment the spreadsheet would have gotten a yellow “in progress” cell.

How to run it

Cycles, testers, pass/fail.

Organize more tests

Suites, tags, modules, deprecating unused tests.
