Exploratory Testing | Users have the ability to capture screenshots, edit screenshots with annotations and attach them to either new defects, existing defects or existing test executions. | - Provides a unique style of agile testing to take away the focus from pre-scripted test plans.
- Capture screenshots and artifacts to perform quick on-the-fly testing.
- Helps to quickly identify important defects by quickly reporting the issue so that it can be formally tested at a later time.
- Provides rapid feedback, traceability, and shorter test prep times to decrease time, cost, and resources spent.
|
Project Specific and Multi-JIRA Instances | Users are able to configure multiple JIRA instances to the system to be able to run specific instances per project. | - Allows the administrator the ability to house multiple JIRA instances within the Zephyr system for future use on new or existing projects.
- Provides users the capability to configure a specific JIRA instance for a particular project.
- Provide organizations the freedom to decide which JIRA instance to use for certain scenarios and projects.
|
JIRA Requirements Sync | Users are able to perform JIRA Requirement Synchronization within Zephyr. | - Provides users with the capability to import requirements from JIRA to Zephyr.
- Provides the ability to import within a designated and planned folder structure that houses the synced/imported requirements.
|
Requirements Traceability | Users can have full access to view and trace their requirements within Zephyr to their defects. | - Provides users with the ability to view their full traceability from requirements to test case, test case to test executions, test executions to defects.
- Reports can be generated and exported to an excel document for further reporting.
|
UI/UX Improvements | Continuous improvements to the customer user experience. UI/UX improvements driven by customer feedback. | - Quality of life changes applied to Zephyr to improve overall accessibility and ease of use for the application.
