TestRail Customer Review

5/5 Stars

How our organization uses TestRail:

We use [TestRail] for tracking all forms of testing and integration of our automation framework. This allows us to get automated testing and manual testing to use a single reporting system.

The next step we intend on doing is measuring the QA time so we can predict QA testing time. This will allow us to measure hiring efforts in the future as well as release cadence which is ultimately what any organization wants.

Would you recommend TestRail?

Yes: [TestRail] is extremely intuitive and can be used in a variety of ways for testing, including functional/regression testing, exploratory testing, UX acceptance and load testing (among others). It is by far the best test tracking tool in the market right now.
