I've been running into the same issue. Ryan Davis came up with the idea
of a "functional test matrix":
http://blog.zenspider.com/archives/2007/04/functional_test_matrix.htmlborrowing the spreadsheet idea from FIT.. Anyways, I have been trying to
think of a way to apply something similar in conjunction with stories...
Maybe generate and run stories based off a matrix for access control
reasons?
Does this give any one some ideas?
