1 - create a new host group named 'parent' with global parameter named 'parameter1' with value 'parentValue'
2 - create a new host group named 'child' and set Parent to host group created in step 1. and change value of 'parameter1' to 'changed'

Result:
Value of 'parameter1' in 'child' host group is still 'parentValue'
Value of 'parameter1' in 'child' host group is editable but no change is applied.
