To create a new testcase, click Add near the top of the list view, the lower panel will show the new testcase and details below it. Selecting the checkbox of an existing testcase and hitting Clone will make a copy of the testcase in the same location. There are two ways to view the details of a testcase, the list and details view. To save space and maximize the details area, the header can be collapsed. In the collapsed state, it provides some high level information and it can be expanded by clicking anywhere on it. A shortcut to import testcases is also on the header.
