Documentation

Everything you need to get up and running with TestSurge.

Getting Started

  1. Create an account — sign up for a free TestSurge account, no credit card required.
  2. Connect Jira — authorize TestSurge to read your project's stories.
  3. Pick a story — select a Jira story and generate your first set of test cases in seconds.

How to connect Jira

From your TestSurge dashboard, go to Settings → Integrations → Jira and click Connect. You'll be redirected to Atlassian to authorize access. TestSurge only requests read access to issues and write access to comments/attachments (for pushing generated test cases back to Jira) — we never modify your story descriptions.

Once connected, choose which projects TestSurge can see. You can revoke access at any time from the same settings page.

How to generate test cases

Open any connected story and click Generate Tests. TestSurge analyzes the story's description and acceptance criteria, then produces all five test types: functional, negative, edge case, regression, and integration. Review, edit, and export the results — or push them directly to TestRail or Jira.

How to use Impact Analysis

When a story changes, open the story in TestSurge and click Analyze Impact. TestSurge compares the updated requirements against your existing test suite and flags which test cases are likely affected, so your team knows exactly what to re-run before release.

FAQ

Do I need to install anything?

No. TestSurge runs entirely in your browser and connects to Jira via OAuth — there's nothing to install.

Which Jira plans are supported?

TestSurge works with Jira Cloud on any plan. Jira Server / Data Center support is available on the Team and Enterprise plans.

Can I edit generated test cases?

Yes. Every generated test case is fully editable before export, and you can regenerate individual cases without re-running the whole story.

What formats can I export to?

Excel (.xlsx), CSV, and direct push to TestRail or Jira (Zephyr/Xray) on supported plans.
