Test Plan - Properties


Plan Name	The name identifies the test plan. It's required and has to be set during creation of the test plan. It can be edited later. The names for test plans of the same project have to be unique. The name is also used to select a test plan in the execution view.
Description	An optional description for further explanation of the test plan. The description can be set during creation of the test plan and can be edited later.
Configuration	An optional configuration to add additional meta data to the test plan. Configurations are project specific and can be managed by the JIRA administrator. They provide information in form of simple key-value pairs. The configuration can be set during creation of the test plan and can be edited later.
Tests	A test plan contains one or more tests which are added during structuring specific test plans. The amount of tests and test steps contained in a test plan is calculated automatically and will be displayed in the plan view.
