Make use of the Test TYPE.

By seting the TYPE to "Field 1 exists, Field 2 does not, Field 3 is in the past" this allows you to run Workflow Tests against scenarios where you require 2 fields to be not null.

Soil Report has been received, Foundation Design has been Received, Permit Ordered has not occured.
