Fields
Fields are reusable custom metadata inputs that admins define at the workspace level. They appear on test cases, test results, and test sessions — letting teams capture structured data that matters to the way they work.
Who can manage fields?
The Fields page is at Settings → Fields and is accessible to Tenant Admins and Project Admins.
| Action | Required Access |
|---|---|
| View the Fields page | Tenant Admin, Project Admin |
| Create a field | Tenant Admin, Project Admin |
| Edit a field | Tenant Admin, Project Admin |
| Delete a field | Tenant Admin, Project Admin |
| Configure project overrides | Tenant Admin, Project Admin |
The custom-field limit on Free
Free includes 5 custom fields, counted across test case, run-result and exploration fields together; built-in fields such as Steps don’t count. Starter and above are unlimited. At the limit only New field is blocked: it stays in place, disabled, under a one-line note — “All 5 custom fields on Free are in use — delete one you no longer need, or move to Starter for unlimited fields.” — with Upgrade to Starter for a billing admin or Ask for anyone else. Every existing field keeps working and stays editable, including after a downgrade. See Plans and Billing.
Three contexts, one page
Settings → Fields is a single page with three tabs. The tab you are on is part of the address, so a link to a tab reopens on that tab, and leaving for the field editor and coming back lands you where you were.
| Tab | Where the field appears | Types |
|---|---|---|
| Test case fields | On a test case, when it is written or updated. | All 10, including Steps. |
| Test run fields | On the result form, when an execution is recorded. | 9 — Steps is not offered. |
| Exploration fields | On an exploration. | 9 — Steps is not offered. |
The three are separate families: a field defined on one tab is not available on another. If you need the same fact captured on both a case and an exploration, define it twice.

Test Case Fields
The Test case fields and Test run fields tabs — the list, the editor, presentation, and deleting a field.

The Exploration fields tab — and how these differ from test case and test run fields.
Project Overrides
