Qase vs. Testpad

Qase is a test management platform for QA and development teams responsible for quality. It brings CI results, automated test runs, and manual test cases into one system of record, so you can tell whether a release is ready from the data, not from a Slack thread or a judgment call. As a product grows, test results spread out. They sit across CI pipelines, spreadsheets, and issue trackers, with no single view tying them together. Requirements lose their link to test outcomes, so when something breaks in production it's hard to reconstruct what was tested.

Test plans, not test cases. Testpad is built on a different data model. Instead of a suite of test cases, each one a form to fill in with preconditions, steps and expected results, a plan is an outline of prompts. You write a test as a line of plain text, indent to group related tests under a heading, and add a column for each run you do. Established over 16 years ago, customers have included the likes of NVIDIA, GitHub, Bell, Siemens, Sony, HP, and Volvo. It's fast to work in. Type a line, hit enter, write the next one, instead of opening a multi-field form for every test.
