Q. When you execute a test case in Jira (using a test management plugin) and it fails, what is the most common next step?

Delete the test case
B
Mark the test as 'Passed'
C
Create a new 'Bug' issue and link it to the failed test case
D
Close the user story
Solution:

A failed test execution indicates a potential defect. The standard process is to raise a new Bug issue in Jira, detailing the failure, and then link that bug back to the test case that discovered it for traceability.
