Testomat.io features for requirements traceability

Requirements

The Requirements page collects every requirement of the project in a single workspace. You view, organize, and update them in a single place. The full scope of requirements stays in front of the team.

Requirements
Requirement sources

A requirement starts from a source: a Jira issue, a Confluence page, or a PDF file. The system analyzes the description and builds a structured summary. You read the essence of a requirement without the original document.

Requirement sources
AI coverage analysis

AI reviews the suites linked to a requirement. It finds the gaps and suggests coverage improvements, or generates a new suite with test cases. Requirements get tests before the release, with less manual test design.
