A default test condition and a test step are available. *Conditions* have an instruction field that can be specified, and *Steps* has an *Instructions* field and *Expected results* field. These fields are full rich text fields that can be specified with known Microsoft Word functionality. By clicking on *Detailed entry,* you receive a better view to specify test cases. By clicking on the tabs *Text* or *Table*, you receive full rich text functionality where you can insert images, tables, and text for manual test execution.&#x20;
