Once a test plan is created, how can its test cases be altered?

Adding test cases to a test plan

It's simple, you can opt to have a single test case added to a test plan or have multiple test cases added in one go.

Adding a single test case to a test plan

On the test cases page, click on the test case that you want to add to a test plan. On test case view pane, use "Add to an existing Test Plan" option on the actions menu.

You would be asked to select the test plan and the assignee for the test case.
