Team Foundation Server 2015 Cannot Create Test plans

Question

I'm running the latest version of TFS 2015 Update 2.

I'm trying to create a test plan as per this guide https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd380763.aspx

Which suggests when I go to Test > Test plan there should be a green plus icon to create test plans and so on. However I don't see this...

I've got all 'test' related permissions under Security & Areas Allowed for my user, yet this makes no difference.

Am I blind or missing something obvious?

You need to Change access levels for your account to Advanced. If your account doesn't belong to Advanced access level, you won't be able to see the green plus icon.
