In the smoke test screen you are quite limited on functions. I would love to see 2 things added here.

  1. A Task to hide a Test, or approve. Just like in the validation screen. Take for example a View that command timed out. You know the reason but it still pops up in your list and give alot of cluther arround the test steps that matter.
     
  2. Another great task which is introduced in a lot of screens is the Go to functionality button or Go to prefilter button.

    Currently when something is wrong with a prefilter in the test step, you are not able to edited it in the form. You need to open it separately in subjects. Or when something is wrong with a view I would to go to the view code directly.

Wish:
Having the option to approve or hide specific smoke test results would be very helpful. We would like to see this small feature get some priority, because it greatly improves the usability of this screen. 

Currently, there are many smoke test results that are technically correct, but because they lack context, they are not worth fixing.

For example, a table may contain an expression that uses a function that no longer exists. However, if the table is not reachable and will not be used in any way, there is no need to address it. We would like the ability to hide or approve such smoke test results.

Result:
This would make the list of smoke tests that actually need to be resolved more accurate and focused.
