Vansah For Jira – October Release 2025

Current Open Release being worked on.

Updated today

OPEN: Release: Last updated 08th of October 2025

What’s new

Enhanced Test Execution Report (TER) Gadget

We’ve introduced comprehensive test execution status tracking directly within the TER Gadget, making it easier to evaluate testing progress at a glance, without expanding the report or navigating to other gadgets.

New Status Metrics Available


Test Folder Traceability Reports now display the complete folder tree path

When viewing reports or gadgets such as Traceability (RTM), Test Execution, or other Vansah reporting gadgets, the Test Folder tree now displays the full folder path.

Example:

Instead of only showing the last folder, the full path is now displayed:

  • Before:

    • Member Enrolment and Eligibility

  • Now:

    • Claims Submission / Member Enrolment and Eligibility


Link Jira Work Items to Test Folders

You can now link Jira work items directly to Vansah Test Folders, providing stronger traceability between requirements, user stories, epics, and your test structure.

What this means for you

  • Improved Traceability – Connect work items at the folder level to ensure all related tests inherit visibility.

  • Simplified Management – Easily organize and track testing against Jira work items without having to link items one by one at the test case level.

  • Enhanced Reporting – Linked work items automatically appear in Vansah traceability reports and gadgets, giving you complete end-to-end coverage insights.


Jira Notifications when Assigning Test Cases

Vansah now sends automated email notifications via Jira’s native notification system whenever a test case is assigned. This ensures team members are instantly informed when the assignee changes, without requiring extra setup.


Test Case Status Color Indicators

We’ve added color icons for Test Case status, making it easier to scan and identify progress at a glance.

  1. A configurable color-coded status icon is now displayed to the right of each checkbox.

  2. Icons match the corresponding status name, ensuring consistency across the UI.

  3. This enhancement improves readability and helps users quickly distinguish between different statuses.


Export Reports and Gadget data to HTML/PDF

We’ve introduced the ability to export Vansah reports and gadget data into HTML downloadable format, giving you more flexibility when sharing and presenting test insights.

  1. Export reports directly from Saved Reports and Jira Dashboards

  2. Improved formatting: rows auto-expand, row heights adjust for readability


Export Test Plans to HTML/PDF

You can now export test plans directly from your Test Plans to HTML/PDF


Search and Filter Test Cases by Test Folders

You can now perform precise, flexible searches across Test Repositories and even across different projects, ensuring faster access to the right test cases for planning, execution, and reporting. This means you can search for Test Cases that are part of a selected set of Test Folders with conditions like AND/OR.


List All Sprints/Releases in a Project

Previously, Vansah only displayed the current Sprint/Release linked to a Jira Work Item. With this update, you now have the flexibility to choose how Sprints and Releases (Versions) are displayed for new or existing Test Runs.

  • Default setting: Only show Sprints or Releases linked to the Jira Work Item (as before).

  • New option: Display all Sprints and Releases in the project, regardless of whether they are linked to the Work Item.

This enhancement provides greater visibility and flexibility, making it easier to align your test activities with past, current, or upcoming Sprints and Releases.


Mandatory/Optional Field Control for Test Runs

We’ve introduced a highly requested enhancement to improve accuracy and consistency when executing test runs.


You can now configure whether Environment, Release, and Sprint fields are mandatory or optional during test run creation and execution.


Vansah Intelligence (AI) For Test Folders

Vansah’s next release introduces AI for Test Folders, giving you intelligent, automated support to design and refine your entire test repository structure directly inside Jira.

With AI for Test Folders, you can:

  • Instantly Generate Test Folder Structures
    Select a folder in your Test Repository, click AI, and Vansah will recommend a logical, best-practice folder hierarchy based on your module, feature, or functional area.


Vansah Intelligence (AI) Test Cases for Test Folders

Vansah Intelligence AI now supports generating test cases directly from any Test Folder. By introducing folder descriptions across the entire folder tree, AI can automatically leverage:

  • The folder’s own metadata

  • Context from parent folders

  • Project repository-level descriptions

This ensures that test cases generated are more relevant, structured, and aligned to the testing scope without requiring additional manual inputs.

When a user selects a test folder, the AI will:

  1. Extract metadata from the selected folder (e.g., description, scope, attributes).

  2. Traverse up the folder tree to gather additional parent folder descriptions.

  3. Incorporate repository-level context to align generated test cases with the overall project.

By combining metadata from multiple levels of the folder hierarchy, Vansah AI ensures that generated test cases:

  • Reflect the intent and scope of the entire testing domain

  • Maintain consistency across related test areas

  • Require less manual prompting to achieve accurate results

  • Provide improved traceability back to folder-level organization

This approach allows teams to create domain-specific, context-rich test cases with minimal effort, leveraging their existing folder structure as a source of truth.


New Dashboard Insights for Vansah Test Plans

A new way to visualize and track the progress of your Test Plans with Vansah Test Plan Insights page. This powerful dashboard brings together multiple reporting gadgets, giving you instant visibility into:

  • Test Summary – High-level snapshot of overall testing progress.

  • Test Execution – Detailed breakdown of executed, passed, failed, and blocked tests.

  • Burn Up – Track cumulative progress over time to ensure you’re on target.

  • Test Assignment Overview – See workload distribution across testers for better resource planning.

With these insights at your fingertips, you’ll be able to make faster, data-driven decisions, identify risks early, and keep your testing on track.


New Test Script Toolbar

A new contextual Test Script toolbar to speed up step authoring and maintenance directly inside Jira. When you select one or more steps, a compact toolbar appears with your most-used actions.

  1. Selected Steps counter – live count of the steps you’ve highlighted.

  2. Copy – copy selected steps (including step text, test data fields, and formatting) to paste into Slack, email, Jira comments, or a new test.

  3. Clone– duplicate selected steps with content, test data, and formatting preserved; clones appear directly below and auto-renumber.

  4. Insert – add new steps above, below, or at end based on cursor position.

  5. Attach – add evidence (e.g., screenshots, logs, videos) at the exact step.

  6. Call – reference an existing test case within your script for reusable flows.

  7. Delete – bulk delete with a confirmation and an Undo prompt

We have also introduced Drag & Drop to re-arrange Test Steps via handle


Bulk Edit Test Run Properties

A new Bulk Edit Test Run Properties feature is available for Vansah!
You can update test run parameters including Test Case results for multiple Test Cases at once, directly from the Jira-linked work item, Test Folder or Test Plan.

This makes it faster and easier to manage and update your Test executions in bulk, saving you time and streamlining your workflow.


Announcing Vansah’s Tricentis Plugin Migration Tool!

We’re excited to announce the release of Tricentis Plugin Migration Tool for Vansah! This new tool makes it easy for teams to seamlessly transition from Tricentis for Jira to Vansah Test Management for Jira.

Test Cases

You can now link or move Test Cases to any Test Folder within the same Jira project or across other projects. The enhanced Folder Tree view makes it easier to navigate and manage your folder structure.

New subfolders can be created on the fly during linking or moving, streamlining organization and maintaining a well-structured Test Case hierarchy.

VANS-5731

Data Residency

Data Residency details, showing which data center your Vansah data resides in. This enhancement provides greater transparency and compliance visibility, allowing users to easily confirm where their testing data is stored.

VANS-5732

Test Runs

We’ve improved the Test Execution breadcrumb by adding a tooltip that displays the full folder name when you hover over it.

VANS-6000

Test Plans

Exporting Test Plans to HTML now includes the full Test Plan name

VANS-6044

Config

Test Case type has been increased to 55 characters to allow for more descriptive Test Case Types

VANS-5202

Filters

Improve Filter List Box Usability inside Advanced Test Plans. The current filter list box is not wide or long enough, causing filter names to be truncated and requiring extra user interaction to view the full list.

Enhancement:

VANS-5233

Test Folder Tree

When users resize the Test Folder tree panel in the Test Case Repository or Test Plans beyond a certain width limit (10 subfolders + ) , the folder structure stops rendering, resulting in missing folders. This impacts navigation and prevents users from accessing or selecting test cases.

Enhancement:

VANS-2604

Test Plans

Currently, the Linked Issues for a Test Plan are not visible in the header section. This makes it difficult for users to quickly identify and track related bugs, as they must open each requirement individually to see the associated work items.

Enhancement:

VANS-5735

Test Runs

New improved Test Run tab across Vansah for consistency when managing Test Runs

Gadget

We have resolved an issue where the folder hierarchy was not displaying correctly in the Test Folder Tree Structure (TFTS) and Test Folder Traceability Matrix (TFTM) gadgets/reports. Test folder navigation is now clearer and more intuitive. The traceability matrix reflects the correct folder relationships, improving reporting accuracy and usability.

VANS-5761

Filters

Applying filters based on custom fields returned incomplete or no results.

VANS-5734

AI

Creating Test Cases using Vansah Intelligence (AI) for a Jira Work Item does not automatically assign the Test Cases to the creator. Expected behavior is that the Test Cases should inherit the Assignee field from the logged-in user who initiated the AI generation process.
