3) Each test case can be matched with requirements.

4) The folder structure in TestLink terminology is

       Mapping with Normal testing terms will be like :

               Project-> TestPlans-> Test Cases

  5) Only "admin" can create test projects/users.

  6) Leaders  can create Test Suite, Builds, Assign test case executions.

  7) Test Suites/ Test cases can be moved/ copied in single project. Copying from another project is not allowed.

  8) Once test cases are updated, leader can assign the test cases to testers.

 9)  The testers can mark the test cases as PASS/Failed/Blocked.
