QAlity Plus vs Squash TM

QAlity Plus is a Jira-native test management app from SolDevelo for bringing QA into development workflows. Test cases are Jira issues with individual steps, and Jira issue links can connect them to requirements. Teams can run tests in Jira, record each step as pass or fail, and group cases into cycles aligned with sprints or releases. Cycle tracking includes progress and blocked status. When a test exposes a problem, users can create a bug report with its description and reproduction steps filled in automatically, then associate the bug with the execution. Reports cover traceability from requirements through defects; execution reports show status and assignee charts and can be exported. The Advanced plan adds automated testing integrations, including JUnit XML result imports, and APIs are available for scripted integrations. The free QAlity plan costs nothing and allows up to 25 test executions daily, with test cases, cycles, and attachments. QAlity Plus has a 30-day free trial.

Squash TM is a test-management platform for organizing software quality work from execution through broader management. It handles requirements and test-case repositories, campaigns, executions, projects, dashboards, and reports. Manual, exploratory, BDD, and automated testing practices are supported. Requirements and user stories can synchronize with GitLab or Jira, with progress sent back to those tools. Listed anomaly integrations include GitLab, Jira, Mantis, Azure DevOps, Redmine, Tuleap, and Bugzilla. Automation connections include Robot Framework, Cucumber, JUnit, Playwright, Cypress, Postman, SoapUI, Katalon, UFT, Ranorex, and Agilitest. Squash TM retrieves automated results from CI pipelines and associates them with campaigns, requirements, and anomalies. Community is open source and costs nothing. Server and Cloud plans add capabilities such as support, reporting, identity management, or AI-assisted design, depending on plan. Henix has edited the product since 2011.
