this is entirely unique per group, but I think a combination of the
TypedTicketWorkflow, MasterTickets, TracForms, and possible the
TestCaseManagement or QA tracker plugins.  You might want one of the
ticket templating ones as well depending on the implementation.

a system we are experimenting with:we have the following ticket types:
Feature branch, defect, enhancment, and test, testSuite.  A "feature"
branch is always blocked by a singe testSuite type, and many defect
and ehancement types.  and ehancement or defect is always blocked by a
singe test type.  The workflow for the test, testSuite, and Feature
branch are highly customized for our process.  but the basics are the
feature branch, defect, enhancment have a state in them "ready for
test", with an assign to option.  the test and testSuite types have
completely different workflows than a defect or enhancment, and have
different close states of pass, fail, skipped.  They also have no
verification stage, instead we have a "updateProjFile" state vs.
"requiresVerification"  the ticket then goes to closed after the
results are in the project file.

We also use the tracForms plugin for our test and testSuite
templates.  however I think we plan to try a switch to the
TestCaseManagement one, for the source control hook of test cases and
suites.  we are in the testing stages right now anyway, so we can
experiment a bit.

The hardest part is the highly typed workflow.  we still have the
occassional "dead path" case we never expected to use.  Of course, if
you are specifically tracking tests as a completely separate project,
your workflow would be less complicated.

In other words, yes, you can do this.  The ability to link to other
things in the wiki (such as tickets, requirements if you use the wiki
for that, author notes etc. is really nice) and with 11.4, you can
allow custom fields to be wiki markup, which makes it even easier to
streamline/link/trace info.

they key is to tailor it to your workflow and organizational needs.
