349799 - Show my comments some way in the UI during a run?

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Webtools Graveyard :: Litmus, defect, P3)

Description

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

I would like to see the comments I entered during a run. Right now the field in litmus only allows you to submit, and they I guess you have to query for them. I would find it helpful as I am going along in a section (kind of like bugzilla where you have an entry for comments but can also see them)

Comment 1

[Chris Cooper [:coop] (he/him)]

Sure, we can do this. We will want to avoid having the display of a single testcase grow too much with existing comment display to keep things as compact as possible for testers (less scrolling). 

Perhaps a visibility toggle between displaying existing comments and entering a new comment, with the default state being existing comment display?

Marcia: do you still want this feature? If so, let me see if I understand what you want are asking for. 

If you have already submitted comments for a testcase in the current subgroup you are testing (which implies that you have already submitted a result for that testcase), you would like those comments to be visible when return to test the same subgroup, presumably to finish up testcases that you did not submit before? 

Is that an accurate characterization?

Yes, but in the scheme of things I think this bug can be lower priority than some of the other requests.
