Generate Test Cases from Jira Work Item Details

Choose the Jira work item details Vansah Intelligence uses, review suggested Test Case headlines, and create the selected Test Cases and scripts.

Vansah Intelligence can generate Test Cases from a Jira work item’s requirements. Check the information it will use, review the suggested headlines, and then create the Test Cases and scripts you need.

Before you begin

  • Make sure Vansah Intelligence is activated and available for your subscription, with permission to use it in the Jira space.

  • Open a work item you can access. Give it a clear summary and description with expected behavior and acceptance criteria.

  • Review existing linked Test Cases so you can recognize overlapping coverage.

1. Check the work item context

  1. Open the work item’s Vansah Test Management panel and select the Vansah Intelligence sparkle tab.

  2. Before generating, select Configure using the settings icon.

  3. Review the Summary, Description, and any additional work item attributes selected for AI. Where permitted, choose another property from the list and select Add.

  4. Review available child work item, subtask, and comment options. These depend on your subscription and settings.

Configure action on the Vansah Intelligence generation screen.

Work item attributes panel showing Summary, Description, and selected additional fields.

Additional properties can include Labels, Components, or a field containing your acceptance criteria. Use properties that add useful requirement details. Attribute changes are saved for the Jira space, so coordinate changes with your team.

2. Choose the Test Case settings

  1. Choose the Type of Test Case you want to generate.

  2. Choose the Test Script format. If you choose Automation and a Target is requested, select the target language.

  3. Set any available testing scope and maximum Test Case count. Select duplicate avoidance if you want Vansah to consider existing linked Test Cases.

  4. Select Next to generate suggested headlines.

Test Case Type and Test Script format controls.

Duplicate avoidance considers the current work item and selected Test Case type. Review the suggestions yourself for broader duplication or missing coverage.

3. Review headlines and create Test Cases

  1. Wait for the suggested headlines to appear. Read each one against the work item’s requirements.

  2. Edit unclear headlines and select only the scenarios you want to create.

  3. Select Next to generate the selected Test Cases and scripts. Completed Test Cases are saved as generation progresses.

  4. Open the created Test Case links and check the steps, test data, expected results, and work item links before using them.

If generation stops or fails, check which Test Cases were already created before retrying. Stopping generation does not remove completed Test Cases.

Improve the results

  • Add specific rules, expected outcomes, and error conditions to the work item rather than relying on a short title.

  • Include the relevant acceptance-criteria field in the available context settings.

  • Choose a Test Case type and scope that match the testing task.

  • Review and refine generated content; AI can make incorrect assumptions.
