Testopia [Over the wall]

While we doing a test run some times we met some bugs related to other products. (mm.. other means not related to the testing product. Say SRS) Then what we are doing is initiate a bug for it. (Yes.. that's the normal procedure and it will track to closure) But other than that to get the maximum from Testopia we can create a test case for that bug. The Testopia extension (for Bugzilla...) provide a link "Create a test case" at the top of the bug page. 
We need to select the product. Then need to set the Priority, Category and Status. Testopia load the bug description to the Action field. From that we can "cut" and "copy" the "Setup" and "Expected Results" fields.

Advantage.
  1. The method of finding the bug will never dismiss. Each and every test run we can check whether the same bug occurs again due to another change.
  2. If the same bug occurs again the tester don't need to memorize whether this has a reported bug. Cause Testopia care about it.
