    Did you know? Where do I start?

    If you are the Project Manager, start with the Defects list to view all the defects in the database. Next, create filters to view specific defects. For example, create a filter that displays all defects currently in an Open state. You may also want to print a report that lists all defects opened in the past week.

    If you are the Lead Engineer, start with the Defects list. Create a filter that displays all defects created, fixed, or verified in the last week and are not currently assigned and not in the closed state. Then, assign the defects to the appropriate person.

    If you are an Engineer/Developer, start with the Workbook. The Workbook displays all the defects assigned to you and any to do tasks you added. You can also start with the Defects list and create a filter to displays only the defects assigned to you.

    If you are the Lead QA person, start with the Defects list and create a filter that displays all defects that are currently released to testing. Then, assign these defects to a QA team member for verification. You can also create a filter that displays defects that failed verification.

    If you are a member of the QA team, start with the Workbook. The Workbook displays all the defects assigned to you and any to do tasks you added. If you need to add new defects, start with the Defects list.
