This form has the following fields:

Parent assets:	These read-only fields show which organisation, programme, project and (if applicable) sub-project you are creating this new test run for.
Short name*:	Enter a short name for this new test run, e.g. Regression test. This must be unique within the whole project or sub-project.
Description:	Enter a description of this new test run here. You could include any particulars of the test run for example which device the test will be run on.
Status:	Select the initial state of the test run from this drop-down list. Normally you would leave this as New. If you are going to start the test run directly then you could select Started as the initial state.
Test cases:	The rest of the form shows all the test cases in the selected asset that can be included in this test run. You can toggle the check boxes to include any test cases you want.

^*The name field is mandatory, but all others are optional. Once you are happy with your entries click the “Add test run” button at the bottom of the form. This will add a new test run with the details that you supplied. The new test run can be viewed in the Test runs tab asset listing at the parent asset’s view page, as shown in Figure 4.
