Overview

By integrating Test Management with GitHub, QA teams are now able to leverage the same collaboration features and project management tools as development teams.

• Test instructions are captured using plain text markdown and managed in repositories following the same process as development (version control, pull requests, etc.).
• No proprietary UI required for test authoring.
• GitHub issue integration.
• Test planning that leverages branches, issues, and GitHub Project Boards.
• And support for automated fixturing using GitHub Actions and AWS Lambdas.

A Testspace manual project uses a Repository, Branches, Issues, and a Board all tightly integrated with GitHub.
