Key Takeaways
- 01
qTest Pulse rules, triggers and actions, paired with Azure DevOps service hooks, keep qTest requirements in step with work items as they are created, updated and deleted.
- 02
A defect submitted from a failed test run in qTest is created in Azure DevOps as a bug, tagged as coming from qTest and linked back to its source.
- 03
Changes a developer makes to that bug in Azure DevOps, such as state and added detail, update the defect in qTest.
- 04
Linking a test case to its requirement in qTest gives the tester traceability, so later changes to the requirement reach them.
- 05
The same Pulse setup can post Slack notifications when work items change, and qTest Copilot can generate test cases from a requirement description.
Sync Azure DevOps and qTest with qTest Pulse: transcript and chapter notes
Watch a working two-way integration between Azure DevOps and Tricentis qTest, built on qTest Pulse. When a work item is created, updated or deleted in Azure DevOps, the matching requirement in qTest follows. A defect logged from a failed test in qTest becomes a bug in Azure DevOps and stays in sync as developers work it.
In this demo Hari Kiran Yalavarthi follows the work the way a team does it. A developer creates a feature in Azure DevOps and it shows up in qTest as a requirement with its state, area path, description and acceptance criteria. The feature is edited, then deleted, and qTest follows each change. A tester links a test case to the requirement for traceability, runs it, fails it and submits a defect. That defect is created in Azure DevOps with a qTest tag and a link back to the source, and when the developer changes its state and adds detail, the qTest defect updates to match.
qTest Pulse ships with a qTest license. The JavaScript, webhook design and field mapping that make it work in a specific environment still have to be built, and that is the work we do.
