  • Cycle Monitoring — Browse test cycles to see how test runs are grouped for specific releases, sprints, or regression cycles
  • Execution Tracking — Monitor real-time test execution results (Pass, Fail, Blocked) and retrieve step-by-step progress details
  • Test Planning — List high-level test plans to understand your overall testing strategy and project scope
  • Folder Navigation — Explore the organizational hierarchy of your test cases, cycles, and plans to find specific work items
  • Environment Audit — List configured test environments (Staging, Production) and custom statuses available for your project
  • Step-by-Step Insights — Retrieve full objective, preconditions, and detailed test scripts for any individual test case

List all test cases in project 'PROJ'.

I found 12 test cases in project PROJ. The most recent are: 1. 'User Login' (Key: PROJ-T1), 2. 'Password Reset' (Key: PROJ-T2), and 3. 'Profile Update' (Key: PROJ-T3). Which one would you like to inspect?

What are the details for test cycle 'PROJ-R42'?

Cycle 'PROJ-R42' (Regression Q1): Status: In Progress, Planned Start: 2026-03-25, Planned End: 2026-04-05. It contains 25 test executions. Current progress: 15/25 complete.

Show me the results for execution ID '12345678'.

Execution 12345678 Result: FAILED. Total steps: 5. Steps 1-3 Passed, Step 4 Failed: 'Clicking submit button returned no response'. Time taken: 45s. Would you like me to pull the linked Jira issue?

Yes. The `get_test_case` tool allows your AI agent to retrieve the full script for any test key, providing the exact sequence of steps, test data, and expected results defined in Zephyr Scale.
