Hi Miguel,

Thanks a lot for your nice work. I have got a review and push it to:

http://vm12.documentfoundation.org/manage/case/122/

Please take a review and make sure I didn't misunderstand anything. Actually
it took me some time to play and understand :)

As you may notice the instructions and expected results have been modified in
Moztrap. The basic thing I did is to extract those *background* and
*reasoning* sentences, which are actually *great* for people who wants to
thoroughly understand it, out of the instructions.

The reason is we are better off trying to instruct people, even those without
conditional formatting knowledge, to run the test case STEP by STEP. So more
intuitive and relatively direct test case could be more effective for QA to
run.

The way I prefer is to instruct people 'click' things, then observe the
correct behavior as high level as possible, which in this case changing cell
background color is pretty specific. And that's all.

Only when a people found something wrong or curious enough, she is free to
find the logic behind from your lovely detailed descriptions. :)

Please tell me how do you think about them. 

Thanks for your great work! The case is really wonderful!

Sigh, it looks the postfix failed to verify a self signed certificate
there...I'll take a look and don't bother with the mail, I've activate your
account and you are free to edit cases yourself :)

As it is in the first step, there may be some improvements needed. But it is
nevertheless a nice central place we put our test cases effort together, the
data would not lose any way. And again because it is in the first step, wonderful
new test cases like you already did makes it grown:)

Currently I wasn't aware any particular reason to restrict the name space of a
attached file since every case is bound to a test case in Moztrap, so we never
lose the background. Maybe in the future I should make Moztrap to attach a
"case id" to the attachments like Bugzilla did.

@Petr, all - do you have any experience thoughts on that?

Best wishes,
Yifan

Hi Yifan,

I have revised the test, among other issues I have added an Instructions
sheet. Licensed under MPL/LGPLv3 +

Please if someone can review the text, thanks in advance.

I have try to register in Moztrap, but by now I have not received the
confirmation email.

And as the Moztrap is in first steps, maybe better not too much hands on it.
So please put the test in Moztrap if it is right.

Is there some guide on how to structure the name of the test files?
I think could be useful in the future.

Regards,
Miguel Ángel.
