Failure for such issues of nuance is a difficult thing to decide. The QA Team encourages you to think in terms of the big picture: does the software accomplish its task in a reasonably useful way? If so, the best course of action may be to pass the Test Case, but share your insight in a comment so that we can address the issue in a later release of the software.

Recording Your Results

This section details a number of methods for providing feedback on the results of your test. The first and most important thing is to advance the Test Case through its workflow by selecting "Test Passed" or "Test Failed" from the menu bar at the top of the screen in OLETS. This will assign the Test Case to the QA Team, notifying us that you've finished testing the issue.

The second most important feedback method to emphasize is use of comments in OLETS. While the QA Team can determine if an issue has been passed or failed by reviewing its workflow, putting this information in a comment will allow you to make your reasons explicit, especially in the case of failure. We always need to know why a Test Case has failed, and in the case of Bug/Defect testing, we may also need to know why it passed.

Advance the Test Case in the Workflow

This should always be the first step you take in providing feedback on the outcome of your Test Case. You will click either "Test Passed" or "Test Failed" in the menu bar at the top of the Test Case (pictured below).

A dialog box will open, allowing you to enter more specific information. Unfortunately, you'll need to select "Pass" or "Fail" from the "Test Results" selection on the dialog box.
