  • Text area: several lines of text.
  • Date picker: a date.
  • Dropdown select: one option from a list you define.
  • Checkbox: a single on or off choice.
  • Radio Button: one option from a set you define.
  • Multi select: several options from a list you define.
  1. In the left navigation, open Test Cases, then create or open a test case.
