• Choose Execution Planning > Details View
• Select Project > Manual Testing Doc and select Deployment tab.

I choose admin as the user to assign my test to. Click Add to move that user across.

Now go to Execution Planning > Manual Execution Planning

At this stage the item will still not be visible in the manual tests assigned to me pane and this is because I have not started the test cycle yet. To start the test cycle go to Test Selection and click on the test cycle 1 settings icon and choose start test cycle:

Now the manual test should show under the assigned users pane and you can click on the continue manual test option.
