Adding to State Picklist in Azure DevOps Service

I'm using Azure DevOps Service (the on-line version, not on-premise) with Agile methodology.

I'm trying to add a custom state of 'Testing'. I use the method described here, but this doesn't seem to work. I can add Testing as a column in the sprint board, but it doesn't appear in the State picklist values (I do understand that adding a column will not add a State).

How can I get this to appear in the State picklist?

1.You can quickly navigate to the process your current project belongs to via Project settings => Overview => Project Details.

enter image description here

Then you can modify the states there. If you want to add a Testing state to Bug WorkItem type, click the Bug and click the new state:

2.And we should know that only inherited process can be modified in this way. So we must make sure our project is created from inherited process. Otherwise the New State button is disabled.
