AI-Powered Test Generation

Overview

The AI test generation feature lets you generate test cases directly from a Jira issue's title and description. The AI analyzes the issue context and creates structured test cases with titles, steps, expected results, and priorities -- saving significant manual effort.

Prerequisites

• AI features must be enabled for your organization. The organization owner can enable or disable AI features from TestKase Settings.
• If AI is disabled, the Generate Testcase button is grayed out with a tooltip: "AI features are temporarily unavailable. Contact your admin."

How It Works

The generation flow has three phases:

Phase 1 -- Configuration

When you click the Generate Testcase button (Sparkles icon) in the Test Cases tab header, the configuration modal opens.

What you see:

• Jira issue title and description -- Displayed read-only at the top, auto-fetched from the current issue. This provides the context the AI uses to generate test cases.
• Field toggles -- Choose which fields to generate:
  • Title (always enabled)
  • Summary
  • Precondition
  • Expected Result
  • Test Data
  • Priority
• Number of test cases -- Dropdown to select how many test cases to generate (1–10).
• Folder selection -- Button that opens the FolderSelectionModal to choose the destination folder.

Click Generate (Sparkles icon) to start generation, or Cancel to close.

Phase 2 -- Generating

An animated progress screen displays while the AI generates test cases:

• Animated orb visual
• Progress bar with percentage
• "Completed X/Y" counter showing how many test cases have been generated

Wait for generation to complete. This typically takes a few seconds depending on the number of test cases requested.

Phase 3 -- Results

After generation completes, the results screen shows all generated test cases.

Top section:

• Info banner showing the count of generated test cases
• Target folder display with an edit button to change the destination folder

Test case list:

• Select All / Deselect All button with a count of selected items
• Each generated test case appears as an expandable item with:
  • Checkbox to toggle selection
  • Sparkles icon + test case title
  • "Edited" badge -- appears if you have modified any field in the expanded view

Expanded view (click to toggle):

• Editable fields: Title (required -- shows red border if empty), Summary, Precondition, Priority dropdown, Test Data, Expected Result
• Validation errors display with an AlertCircle icon

Error handling:

• If generation encounters an error, an overlay popup displays the error message with a "See more/less" toggle for details. Click OK to dismiss.

Bottom actions:

• Regenerate (Sparkles icon) -- Discards current results and starts the generation flow over from Phase 1
• Submit -- Saves the selected test cases to TestKase and links them to the current Jira issue. Shows the count of selected items. Disabled if no test cases are selected.
