The new ReQtest plug-in extends JIRA’s capabilities with fully-fledged test management features for all your software testing needs. ReQtest test management for Jira is extremely easy to use and is backed by a flexible price model that adapts to your organizations size and project requirements.

The plugin enables full two-way synchronization between issues in JIRA Cloud and bug reports in ReQtest. With a user-friendly interface, suitable for all users including business specialists, you can seamlessly create, execute and follow up on tests with ReQtest while letting the integration with JIRA handle the rest.

The add-on is free of charge. You only have to pay for the ReQtest users that need test and/or requirements features.

Test management in JIRA – Details

ReQtest adds test management to JIRA. Create test cases, group them in test runs and assign them to testers with ease. New bug reports are automatically saved in JIRA, and when a bug is ready for re-test, it is immediately updated in ReQtest where the tester performs the re-test.

The ReQtest add-on for JIRA installs a broad set of advanced tools and features for both test and requirements management. Follow up more effectively using powerful searches, diagrams, customisable form templates and burndown charts.
