# Test cases

Use test cases to group related tests together so that you can add them to a test suite or a test plan.

A test case contains one or more related individual tests and defines the conditions under which a feature must be verified. Test cases are the primary unit for organizing and executing tests in Test Management.

Navigate to **Test Management** > **Test Repository** > **Test Cases** to view a list of test cases. Select a test case to display the Test Case form, which lists all tests in the test case.

## Test organization hierarchy

Tests in Test Management are organized in the following hierarchy:

1.  Tests: Individual test steps that verify a specific condition.
2.  Test cases: Groups of related tests.
3.  Test suites: Collections of related test cases.
4.  Test plans: Structured plans that contain test suites and define how a product must be tested.
