How do I create a new table (at whatever level is appropriate)

I'm trying to document the wide array of Agile Functional test tools, in a searchable form.
My first attempt at this: http://functionaltestingtools.pbwiki.com/FrontPage is bit of mess.
Do I add the tools as individual topics and just tag them with types?
If someone could just point me to a concrete example: i.e. Blackberry is a topic. and its types are XXX.
If I've got this figured out correctly I need to add a topic per tool and them create a view. Which leads to the problem how do I create topics and views?
Looking on this page "Computer Domain" I can't see any add link for either topic or view.

You seem to have mistaken Freebase for a relational database. (-:
I note that your new type is full of text-valued properties that really should expect other types. Take a look at the Software type, for instance; the “Compatible Operating Systems” property expects a Software Compatibility type that links which links the OS and the versions in a compound value type (CVT).
You would probably benefit from checking out the Creating Types and Properties help pages, particularly the Data Modeling Guide. I think this will help answer questions about the views, as well.

Honestly this turns out to be way more complicated than I had hoped. At this stage I will just create a google spreadsheet.

Sorry I tried to say thanks for taking the time to help - but that didn't get added.

No problem, Mark. Freebase is quite powerful, but modeling new kinds of information is correspondingly difficult. We’ve tried to make the UI easy to use, and are still working on that, but there is an irreducible complexity, if you will, to the actual modeling process. Testing software seems like an interesting and useful domain to model, so please do let us know if we can help, if and when you do come back, maybe with a posse at your back. (-:
