In my opinion, that can be a nice-to-have feature, but not a requirement. Unless I'm wrong, we use WARN to note that the test passed, but other bugs were discovered while executing the test. That same information can be supplied in nitrate by marking the test PASS, and linking to additional bugs filed. Seems like we can convey the same information without adding a new STATE. > <snip> > > Oh, how does nitrate designate the site admin and test run admins? > > So far there are two user groups: admin and tester.
