Introduction
Test Case Manager Lite (TCMLite hereafter) is a simple tool designed for software test engineers to organize test cases for storage and execution logging. Once test cases are built, testers use TCM to track and report success, failure, or blocking of test cases. TCMLite has no size or install limitations. Use it an unlimited number of times as a central, multi-user app (yes, XL supports concurrent usage and merge-conflict-resoluton...see section 1.4 in the QuickStart section). TCMLite is intended for use by small to midsize software development teams. TCM was designed to be easy to learn and use.
Type your project data into the white cells Type section header names into the blue cells Do not type over gray cells, especially those with formulas Do not type over dark gray column title cells Do not type over black title cells Do not alter graphs, they will automatically re-calculate and re-size as needed
To change Test Area names, you must rename the worksheets (highlighted in yellow below) by double-clicking them. All references to these test areas will automatically update throughout the spreadsheet immediately after making your changes.
1.3 - Reset Test Case Execution Status for a New Test Cycle:
Once you have the base set of test cases built for a project, you will often want to clean out the Status field to capture results for a new test cycle. For example, you may have a regression suite of 450 test cases that you run through every major release. After creating a new copy of the most recent spreadsheet, you may need to clean out its results. Do so as follows: 1. Search and Replace (ctrl-H) the letter 'P' with the letter 'U' ( [A] below). This will reset status to Untested (from Pass). Be sure to check "Match case" and "Find entire cells only" ( [B] below) to ensure that only the contents of column "Status" get changed throughout the spreadsheet. A 1 B
2. Repeat Search and Replace for the letters 'F', 'B', and 'S' also, changing them back to 'U' for the next test cycle.
2. Be sure "Allow changes by more than one user at a time" is checked (see [B] below) B
B A
2.B - Report Title: Test Cycle Name + Project Number & Project Name:
Do not type over this text; it is automatically pulled from Test Cycle section's Test Cycle Name field (see [D] above), and the project number and project name in the second line are pulled from the Project Information section (see [E] above).
3.B - Report Title: Test Cycle Name + Project Number & Project Name:
Do not type over this text; it is automatically pulled from the worksheet Snapshot's Test Cycle section's Test Cycle Name field (see [D] above), and the project number and project name in the second line are pulled from the Project Information section (see [E] above).

2. Press ctrl-C to copy the highlighted row 3. Highlight the target row(s) which will be inserted down when you insert-paste the source empty test case row. Note that you can paste multiple new rows from the single highlighted source row as shown in the screenshot below (by highlighting several target rows):
4. Right-click and select "Insert Copied Cells" from the context menu. Since I highlighted 4 rows, this operation will paste four copies of the one source row:
5. Resulting in TC's #51-54 (black rows 65-68) being added. This is how you paste-insert new rows while still preserving drop down values in the Test Results column, and more importantly preserving the automatic counts in graphs and charts.
DO NOT use test files or other attachments unless clearly helpful. If so, try to have the creation of the test file be part of the test case. Also, put these attachments on a UNC shared folder on your network, and only put the reference path here in the comments column of the given test case. Ensure other testers on your team have access to the share. DO NOT give setup or repro steps unless they are necessary. Anotherwords, if the test case should start off at a well known form, then just list that one step in the setup steps (start at form X). You do not need to list all the steps to get to that form too, unless it is an obscure dialog and it would help new testers.
