    Thanks for all of your response. I like your brilliant idea, but from
QA point of view, I'm afraid it couldn't help our work.
    A formal tester should follow test case to do test, once test is done,
tester fills result in a document, we called it as execution record. QA
lead will generate test report regularly based on the execution records,
and QA manager or PM and others will know the test status. From this
procedure we can tell test case is base element of test, and we need to
generate test report based on execution record.
    If we use bugzilla to record test case, where could we put result into?
If we put test case to wiki page, where could we put result into? another
wiki page? while, how could we generate test report? I don't think bugzilla
and wiki page are right approach.
    So, a powerful test management tool will help us on managing  test
case, test execution and work procedure. So I strongly recommend using test
tool to manage our QA work.

     Here I bring another question, if I want to install the tool into web
server, how to do that? Who will help me on this?
