Test planning/documentation/management tools

Question

I\'m looking for a good, preferably free, test planning and documentation tool. Ideally something that will keep track of which tests have been run against which software versio

Answer 1

We use a home-grown Access database.

This database keeps track of our requirements, test cases, test plan and test runs. We're able to produce an up-to-date RVTM, keep track of progress against the plan, and assign tasks to testers. We integrated it with Outlook, so each tester is assigned a task from the plan by the QA lead. When they're complete, they just tick it off in Outlook and it updates the database.

For our small team of testers it works nicely, and we're free to customize it however we want.
