699685 - Display test case tags and support filtering on them in suite filtered multi-select

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Mozilla QA Graveyard :: MozTrap, defect)

Description

[Carl Meyer (:carljm)]

Bug 687720 requested filtering on test case tags in suites filtered multiselect. This first of all requires that the tags be listed in the multi-select, as all the filtering is done via JS in the browser.

Carl: I've noticed that the multiselect is preloaded with some filters that don't really apply (e.g. draft, locked, userName1, tester2, and other). Is there some way we could only preload those filters that can be found in the applicable products? If not (and maybe even if we can), perhaps I should add some JS to filter down the filter inputs when you switch products (similar to formOptionsFilter currently filters down the applicable cases). It just seems a bit odd that so many autocomplete suggestions are displayed that don't really apply. What do you guys think? Is this a problem worth fixing?

jonny: I would create a separate story for that, and let Cam decide where it falls in the priority list. It's doable in this case to only show filters relevant to the current list, because the full list is always loaded, no pagination. If you do it in JS it'd be "better" because you could actually narrow it down to just the applicable filters for the current product. If I do it server side it'll be narrowed to applicable filters for any test case of any product. I don't think it'd be a lot of work for me server-side; I'll let you make the call whether you want to pursue the JS version or pass it to me (once we have a story for it and we've gotten to that story in the priority list).

Not sure what to do about sorting by tags here. The UI clearly implies that you can; I guess just do alpha sort based on whichever tag happens to be first? Not super useful, but at least not surprising or confusing.

Oops. Forgot to activate the tags as links to filtering by that tag. Reopening this story...

Jonny: when I click the link to apply a filter, then the whole list of cases disappears.  But the one I clicked should show, since it obviously has that filter.

actually, entering them by hand also blanks the list, even for tags that I can see are part of the list.

Yup, my bad. Needed to test with multiple tags on the same case, and I didn't. On it...
