createTestCase/updateTestCase cannot write native BDD fields (feature/background/scenario)

[idegterov]

Problem

createTestCase and updateTestCase have no feature/background/scenario parameters. Their schemas only expose test_case_steps (step/result pairs), description, and preconditions as free text. There is no way through either tool to write to a test_case_bdd-template case's native Background/Scenario fields.

This isn't just a missing convenience — it actively breaks on a BDD-template case:

• Routing Gherkin through description/preconditions "works" but writes to the wrong field (shows as plain text, not native Background/Scenario boxes in the UI).
• Passing test_case_steps to updateTestCase on an existing test_case_bdd-template case is hard-rejected by the backend (confirmed via direct testing, 2026-09-03) — there is no way to attach step/result pairs to a BDD case at all, and updateTestCase also cannot switch a case's template.

Confirmed the backend already supports this

Called the underlying REST endpoint directly (same auth the MCP server uses internally):

PATCH https://test-management.browserstack.com/api/v2/projects/{project}/test-cases/{identifier}
Body: {"test_case": {"feature": "...", "background": "...", "scenario": "..."}}

This returns 200 and persists the fields correctly (verified via a follow-up GET). So this is purely a client-side gap — the API fully supports writing feature/background/scenario on update, the MCP tool schemas just never forward them.

Related PR

#225 ("feat(testmanagement): add optional test_case_bdd field for BDD/Gherkin template support") already implements this for both createTestCase and updateTestCase. It's been open since 2026-02-13 and is currently CONFLICTING (needs a rebase). Opening this issue since I couldn't find an existing one tracking the problem itself — only the PR.

Suggested fix

Rebase and merge #225, or an equivalent change exposing feature/background/scenario as optional parameters on both createTestCase and updateTestCase, matching the REST API's existing test_case_bdd payload shape.
