General Enhancements
- TCM should be open source (L)GPL - so community could be more active in improving TCM.
- Decide if TCM designs the management software or the bundle of it with the testcases.
- The free license should apply to both components; LGPL could be a problem since it would probably allow linking the management software to proprietary testcases; the problems the community has now in accessing and modifying testcases risk not being solved unless the whole (TCM+testcases) is GPLed. But testcases are not source code, so the definition of linking must be interpreted somehow.
Process Enhancements
- community should have the ability to define new builds for testing
Tool Enhancements
general
- option to hide outdated test cycles in test assignment and test result update
- implementation of test types (e.g. release test, feature test)
test case maintenance
test reports
test assignments
- it should be possible to assign testcases to more then one tester
