22 Zephyr Testimonials

"There's high demand (for IT services) from the business-side. We try to deliver what they need, but we also need to get them more involved. Thanks to Zephyr, we were able to do that. They have access to the tool and they use it themselves. They actually loaded the status of the test cases. They did the testing themselves."

"It has a shorter learning curve, which is nice when you bring in new people who haven't worked with it before, It is easier to introduce them to the concepts because it shares a lot of the base terminology and framework with JIRA, so if they know how to use JIRA, they inherently know how to use a good bit of Zephyr for JIRA. It's not quite such a training effort."

"One of the best things about Zephyr for JIRA is the test metrics. Our Zephyr dashboard gives us a detailed snapshot of where we are with regards to QA. We're thinking of installing two flat screen televisions on one of the walls here in our office that will display the JIRA dashboard as well as the Zephyr dashboard."

"We found that it was the most mature product, as opposed to the others which we were evaluating, There are fields which you can configure yourself for Zephyr, and they can actually make things easier and more traceable as compared to Excel or other tools."

"From a basic usability standpoint, Zephyr was a big step up for us. Zephyr integrated very well with JIRA and had many helpful features in the way test cases could be planned and executed."

"No other test management platform can match the speed we need to setup, allocate and report projects which is essential to our on-demand test service."

"The approach and reporting of the testing from Zephyr was extremely well received by all on the project."

"After just a few weeks of using Zephyr for JIRA Cloud we began experiencing the benefits Zephyr brings to the testing process inside JIRA, such as: linking test cases to JIRA in Kanban swim lanes, executing tests and tracking progress, measuring quality, and exporting results. As Zephyr for JIRA Cloud’s user interface is very intuitive, the adoption process has taken less than two weeks. In addition, Zepyhr has enhanced knowledge transfer and communication between ZetaSafe staff giving new QA staff and other stakeholders detailed visibility of the testing process."

"We have different departments practicing different development methodologies and Zephyr works seamlessly for each team. From a QA perspective it allows us to standardize the testing data no matter how the code was developed, providing transparency on status and quality up and down the chain of command."

“Zephyr Enterprise allows us to store and release older test cases and enables us to organize each and every release cycle. Many times, we would reuse the same test cases for different releases and Zephyr Enterprise makes the whole process more efficient.”

"The integration is great and makes everything simple. The link between testcases and JIRA issues gives the flexibility for testers and developers to swap information easily, was not well-supported by HP Quality Center. We picked what we thought was the most mature product of all those we had evaluated. Zephyr offered the most features and functionality that were needed for our project team. It is very easy to use and straightforward."

"We have thousands of test cases that need to be run for every release, Zephyr makes it easy to separate and assign by build iterations and priority. Zephyr saves us a significant amount of time since we can reuse testing assets. We also loved the support; the team was extremely knowledgeable and responsive."

"[B]ecause we were already using JIRA, the learning curve was extremely low, All we had to is show some of the unique things about executing a test or looking a test cycles. If we had implemented a standalone test management solution that might have been weeks of developing some documentation and process around how we do this and the other thing. Within a week we were up and running and productive with Zephyr and JIRA easily."

"Overall, [Zephyr Enterprise Edition] seems to give me the ability to track my group’s testing and record our test cases, map them to requirements and vice-versa, so we can make sure we have every test case, every requirement covered by at least one test case."

"Before Zephyr for JIRA, testing was done ad hoc using a combination of JIRA, Confluence and spreadsheets. It was very manual, time consuming and we would find bugs months after the release. We needed a more rigid and structured approach, but not something with process overkill."
