Quick Start ​

What is Qualflare? ​

Qualflare is a QA test management platform for organizing, executing, and tracking software testing. It supports manual tests through the web UI and automated test result collection via the CLI.

Prerequisites ​

Before creating test cases, you need:

  1. A Qualflare account — sign up at qualflare.com
  2. A workspace and project — created during the onboarding flow after sign-up

Creating Your First Test Case ​

Test cases are the individual tests you want to run.

  1. In your project, navigate to Browse in the left sidebar
  2. Open a suite and click New Case
  3. Fill in the test case details:
    • Title: A clear, descriptive name (e.g., "User login with valid credentials")
    • Description: What the test validates
    • Steps: Step-by-step instructions to execute the test
    • Expected Result: What should happen if the test passes
  4. Click Save

Collecting CLI Test Results ​

The Qualflare CLI (qf) collects test results from 20+ testing frameworks and uploads them to your project.

Installing the CLI ​

bash
# macOS (Homebrew)
brew install qualflare/tap/qf

# macOS/Linux (binary)
curl -sSL https://get.qualflare.com/install.sh | sh

Running Your Tests ​

Run your tests with your preferred framework:

bash
# Example with pytest
pytest tests/ --junitxml=results.xml

# Example with Jest
jest --ci --reporters=default --reporters=jest-junit

Collecting Results ​

bash
qf collect results.xml \
  --project "Web App Tests"

The CLI will:

  • Detect the test framework automatically
  • Parse the results file
  • Upload results to your Qualflare project
  • Create a new launch with the results

Viewing Results in Qualflare ​

  1. Navigate to your project in Qualflare
  2. Click Launches in the sidebar
  3. Click on the launch you created to see:
    • Overall pass/fail status
    • Individual test case results
    • Failure details and stack traces

Next Steps ​

  • Concepts — Workspaces, projects, test cases, launches, and other entities
  • How-to Guides — Creating test plans, tracking defects, analyzing results
  • CLI Tool Documentation — Commands, supported frameworks, CI/CD integration
