Overview
Vansah allows you to create a Test Plan directly from a Jira Work Item (such as a Story, Task, or Bug). This helps teams group relevant test cases, plan test execution, and track testing progress against a specific requirement in a structured and traceable way.
This approach ensures that all testing activities remain closely aligned with the Jira requirement throughout the development and testing lifecycle.
Key Benefits
Maintain clear traceability between requirements and test execution
Organize all related test cases under a single Test Plan
Track execution progress and results at the requirement level
Simplify sprint, feature, and UAT testing
Iteration-Based Test Planning
When to Use This Approach
Testing is scoped to a specific epic, story, task, or bug
You are planning sprint or feature-level testing
You want to track test execution against a single requirement
You need structured reporting for a Jira issue
