**Requirements In. Tested Software Out.** Pull requirements from Jira, Azure DevOps, or your own files. TestMax scores them, writes the tests, and runs them.

### Five steps from documented requirements to execution reports
01. **Ingest: Bring requirements in from anywhere**. Upload a requirements document or import tickets from Jira and Azure DevOps. TestMax splits the file into individual, trackable requirements.
02. **Evaluate: Score every requirement before testing starts**. Clarity, completeness, consistency, atomicity, and testability each get a score out of 5, so weak acceptance criteria surface early.
03. **Enhance: Get a stronger requirement, then approve it**. AI rewrites the title, description, and acceptance criteria. Your team reviews the suggestion and applies it with one click.
04. **Generate: Test cases and automation, written from three sources**. TestMax reads three sources, writes the test cases, then writes the automation script behind each one, as raw code you can read.
05. **Execute & report: Execute a script or a batch. Watch it run.**. Hit execute and the execution window opens: self-healing on, progress filling, logs streaming live. Every run ends with a screenshot at each step and a plain-language verdict on why it passed or failed.

### Eight modules, one connected workflow
- **Requirements management**: Write, upload, or import requirements. Documents, Jira, and Azure DevOps all land in one list.
- **AI evaluation and enhancement**: Five quality dimensions, one overall score, and rewrites your team can accept or edit.
- **AI test case generation**: Positive, negative, boundary, and edge scenarios for every requirement.
- **Automation scripts**: Executable scripts in TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Java or C#. Switch languages or edit through the AI script assistant.
- **Execution engine**: Autonomous agents run batches, retry failures, and keep logs and screenshots for every step.
- **Traceability matrix**: Requirements linked to cases, scripts, and results. Auto-populated and audit ready.
- **Native ALM integrations**: Two-way sync with Jira and Azure DevOps keeps tickets and test status aligned.
- **Real-time reporting and dashboards**: Coverage, execution trends, and pass rates for every project, updated as runs finish.

### Built for teams that ship on a schedule
- **Shift left for real**: Quality checks start at the requirement, while a fix is still a sentence rewrite instead of a code change.
- **Accelerate time to market**: Test cases and scripts arrive in minutes, so a release waits on decisions, not on test authoring.
- **Eliminate manual effort**: Your team reviews and approves. TestMax handles the writing, scripting, and running.
- **Reduce cost of quality**: Defects caught in a requirement cost far less to fix than defects caught in production.
- **Autonomous AI agents**: Agents execute batches, retry failed steps, and collect evidence without anyone watching the run.
- **Enterprise-grade traceability**: An audit-ready record links every requirement to its tests and results.

## AI test automation (https://www.testmax.ai/ai-test-automation)

**AI test automation platform that starts with your requirements**

Pull requirements from Jira or Azure DevOps, or upload a document. TestMax scores them, scans your app and writes tests for review.

### From requirement to script in one AI test automation workflow
1. **Bring requirements in**: Import from Jira or Azure DevOps, or upload the documents they live in. Each one becomes a trackable item.
2. **Score and improve**: Clarity, completeness, consistency, atomicity and testability, each scored out of 5, with rewrites your team approves.
3. **Scan the real application**: TestMax scans your live app, so tests match the screens and flows that actually exist.
4. **Generate tests**: Test cases first, then automation scripts, each linked back to the requirement that asked for it.

### Test cases and test data your team can control
- **AI test case generation**: Positive, negative, boundary and edge scenarios, written from the requirement, its acceptance criteria and the app scan.
- **Traceable by design**: Every case links back to its requirement and forward to its script and results.
- **Reuse existing cases**: Bring in the test cases you already have, so new coverage builds on past work instead of replacing it.
- **Variation tables**: Run one case against many data sets, from valid inputs to edge values, without copying the case.

### Automation scripts you can read, edit, execute and export
Every script is real code, linked to its test case. Read it line by line, convert it to another language, change it through the AI script assistant, run it inside TestMax, and take it wherever your pipeline runs.
- Five languages: TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Java and C#
- AI script assistant explains, improves and debugs
- Execute in TestMax with live logs
- Export as ZIP or push to Azure DevOps
- Self-healing locators when the UI shifts

### AI test automation platform FAQ

**Q: What is an AI test automation platform?**
A: Software that uses AI to help teams move from requirements to validated software. In TestMax, that means evaluating requirement quality, scanning the application, generating test cases and automation, executing tests, and maintaining traceability and evidence throughout the process, with humans remaining in control at every stage.

**Q: Can TestMax use existing requirements?**
A: Yes. Import them from Jira or Azure DevOps, or upload the document files they already live in. TestMax scores them as written and suggests improvements you can accept or skip.

**Q: Which languages can automation scripts use?**
A: TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Java and C#. Convert a script between supported languages, edit it through AI chat or directly in code, and export it for reuse across teams.

**Q: Do we have to accept every AI suggestion?**
A: No. Every requirement rewrite, test case and script stays a suggestion until someone on your team approves it. Nothing changes without a person signing off.

## Test execution (https://www.testmax.ai/test-execution)

**AI test execution with evidence you can review**

Run scripts one at a time or in batches, watch live logs, and get step-level proof for every result.

### Run one script or a full batch
Start a single script while you debug, or queue a whole suite before a release. Runs happen inside TestMax, with no separate runner to set up.
- Individual or batch runs
- Built-in execution engine
- Live log stream while tests run
- Stop a run at any point
- Data variations in a single run

### Self-healing test automation when the UI changes
Three levels, tried in order, before a step is marked failed.
1. **Multi-locator fallbacks**: Each element is stored with more than one locator. When one breaks, the next takes over.
2. **Try and re-scan**: If every locator misses, TestMax re-scans the page to find the element before giving up on the step.
3. **Execution controls**: Retries and stop controls keep every run bounded, so a broken flow fails clearly instead of looping.

### Test execution reports your team can share
Every run ends with a full report: execution details, step-level results, a screenshot at each step, and a plain-language read on why it passed or failed.
- Step-level pass and fail
- Screenshot evidence at every step
- PDF and CSV downloads
- Results mapped to requirements

### AI test execution FAQ

**Q: What is AI test execution?**
A: Running automated tests with AI support around each run. TestMax executes automation scripts, recovers from locator changes, and explains every result in plain language with step-level evidence.

**Q: Do we need a separate test runner?**
A: No. TestMax has a built-in execution engine. Run scripts individually or in batches from the same workspace where they were generated.

**Q: How does self-healing work?**
A: Each element carries more than one locator. If one fails, TestMax tries the others, then re-scans the page to find the element. Retries and stop controls keep every run bounded.

**Q: What reports can we download?**
A: Step-level results with screenshots as PDF, and result data as CSV. Every result stays mapped to its test case and requirement.

## Integrations (https://www.testmax.ai/integrations)

**Jira and Azure DevOps test automation integration**

Pull requirements in from Jira, Azure DevOps or files. Send tests, scripts and status back where your team works.

### What moves in and out of TestMax
| Source | What comes in | What TestMax adds | What comes out |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jira | Requirements | Requirement evaluation, App Scan, test generation, traceability | Test assets, execution results, evidence |
| Azure DevOps | Work items | Requirement intelligence and automation generation | Scripts, results, reports |
| Files | Requirement documents | Structured requirements and coverage generation | Tests, scripts, evidence |

### Jira test automation integration in practice
1. **Connect Jira**: Link your Jira Cloud or Jira Server instance to a TestMax project.
2. **Import requirements**: Choose the issues to bring in. Each arrives with its acceptance criteria.
3. **Score and generate**: TestMax scores each requirement, scans your app, and writes cases and scripts.
4. **Track sync status**: See which requirements are current and which changed in Jira since the last import.

### Azure DevOps test automation, both ways
Work items come in as requirements. Test cases, scripts and execution logs go back out, so your team never copies a result by hand.
- Bidirectional sync with Azure DevOps
- Sync status tracked per requirement
- Cases, scripts and logs exported back
- Scripts pushed to your repository

### Jira and Azure DevOps integration FAQ

**Q: Does TestMax integrate with Jira?**
A: Yes. Import requirements from Jira Cloud or Jira Server, along with their acceptance criteria, and track the sync status of each one.

**Q: What can TestMax do with Azure DevOps?**
A: Import work items as requirements, then export test cases, scripts and execution logs back to Azure DevOps. Scripts can also be pushed to your repository.

**Q: How does requirement sync work?**
A: Every imported requirement shows its sync status, so you can see which ones changed in Jira or Azure DevOps since they were last brought into TestMax.

**Q: Can we use TestMax without Jira or Azure DevOps?**
A: Yes. Upload requirement documents and TestMax splits them into individual requirements. Every other feature works the same way.

## Security (https://www.testmax.ai/security)

**A secure test automation platform your enterprise can control**

Access by role down to single actions, human approval on AI changes, and a visible record of every run.

### Control who can do what
- **Organization, workspace and project controls**: Set access at each level, so teams only see the work that belongs to them.
- **Custom roles**: Build roles that match how your QA organization actually works.
- **Action-level permissions**: Decide who can edit requirements, run tests or approve AI suggestions, one action at a time.
- **User invitations**: Invite people straight into the workspaces and projects they need.

### Review deployment with your IT team
Our team walks your IT and security leads through deployment, data handling and access, and works through your vendor questionnaire with you.

### Keep AI and test runs visible
AI does the drafting. People stay in charge of what changes, what runs and what it costs.
- AI credit usage logged, with alerts
- Human review on every requirement rewrite
- Abort a run at any point
- Delivery by Mammoth-AI, certified to ISO 9001 and ISO 27001

### Security FAQ

**Q: Can our security team review how TestMax is deployed?**
A: Yes. Book a demo or email sales@testmax.ai, and our team will walk your IT and security leads through deployment, data handling and access.

**Q: How do we control user access?**
A: Access is set at organization, workspace and project level. Create custom roles, grant permissions down to individual actions, and invite users into the projects they need.

**Q: Can we see how AI is being used?**
A: Yes. AI credit usage is logged, with alerts, so administrators can see where AI is being used across the workspace.

**Q: Does AI change requirements without approval?**
A: No. TestMax suggests rewrites, and a person on your team reviews and applies each one. Unapproved suggestions never change a requirement.

## Use cases (https://www.testmax.ai/use-cases)

**From automated regression testing to full traceability**

Five problems QA teams bring TestMax in to solve. One workflow underneath: requirement in, tested software out.

### Five problems TestMax helps solve
- **Automated regression testing**: Regression suites grow faster than teams can maintain them. TestMax keeps scripts tied to requirements and heals broken locators, so you can rerun the full suite before every release. Outcome: Full regression before every release, not a sampled subset.
- **Faster releases**: Test authoring is often the slowest lane to a release. TestMax writes cases and scripts from the requirement, so releases wait on decisions, not on writing. Outcome: Test authoring stops being the bottleneck.
- **Legacy test debt**: Older features often have requirements and patchy tests. Bring in the documents and the cases you already have, and TestMax generates the cases they're missing, requirement by requirement. Outcome: Coverage for features that never had enough.
- **Shift-left testing**: The cheapest defect is a vague sentence caught before development. TestMax scores every requirement on five dimensions as soon as it's imported. Outcome: Gaps fixed at the requirement, not in production.
- **Requirements traceability**: Audits ask which test proves which requirement. TestMax records that chain as it works: requirement, case, script, result. Outcome: An audit-ready record without a spreadsheet rebuild.

### Every use case starts with one requirement
1. **Bring it in**: From Jira, Azure DevOps or a document, with its acceptance criteria.
2. **Score and scan**: TestMax checks the requirement's quality and scans the app behind it.
3. **Review, run and trace**: Approve the generated tests, run them, and keep every result linked.

### Use cases FAQ

**Q: Can TestMax handle automated regression testing?**
A: Yes. Generated scripts stay linked to their requirements, so you can rerun the full suite in batches before every release, with self-healing for UI changes and evidence on every failure.

**Q: How does TestMax support shift-left testing?**
A: It scores each requirement for clarity, completeness, consistency, atomicity and testability before any test is written, and suggests rewrites your team can approve.

**Q: Can we bring in our old test cases?**
A: Yes. Existing test cases can be reused alongside new ones, so coverage builds on what your team already has.

**Q: How do we show requirements traceability?**
A: TestMax links every requirement to its test cases, scripts and results as it works. Download the record as PDF or CSV for audits and reviews.

## Who it's for (https://www.testmax.ai/who-its-for)

**Test automation for QA teams, and everyone who depends on them**

QA leads, engineering managers, technology leaders and product teams, all working from the same requirements and results.

### What each role gets from TestMax
- **QA leads**: Your team's time goes to judgment, not typing. TestMax drafts cases and scripts; your testers review, refine and approve. Outcome: More coverage per tester.
- **Engineering managers**: Fewer releases held up by test authoring. Scripts are real code in the language your team uses, so engineers can read and edit every line. Outcome: Release dates you can plan around.
- **CTOs and VPs of Engineering**: Quality you can report on. Results connect back to requirements, so release readiness is a record, not a feeling. Outcome: A clear, defensible view of release quality.
- **Product managers and BAs**: Your requirement is where testing starts. Scores and suggested rewrites show where a story needs more detail before development. Outcome: Stories that ship the way they were written.
- **Enterprise QA**: For QA organizations in fintech, insurance, retail and software, where every release needs proof and every team needs its own access. Outcome: One record across teams and projects.

### One workspace, the right access for each role
Permissions nest. Each level inherits from the one around it, and narrows it.
- **Organization**: Who belongs, and what they can do across the company. Invite users; Define custom roles
- **Workspace**: Teams or product lines, each with its own members. Group related projects; Grant access per workspace
- **Project**: The day-to-day work, controlled action by action. Edit requirements; Run tests; Approve AI suggestions

### Who TestMax is for, answered

**Q: Who is TestMax for?**
A: QA teams first, and everyone who relies on their results: engineering managers, CTOs and VPs of Engineering, product managers and business analysts, and enterprise QA organizations.

**Q: Do testers need coding skills?**
A: No. TestMax writes the automation scripts. Testers review cases and results, and can change scripts in plain language through AI chat. Engineers can still edit the code directly.

**Q: How is access controlled for each role?**
A: Permissions work at organization, workspace and project level, with custom roles and action-level permissions, so each person sees and does only what their role needs.

**Q: Will TestMax fit our existing QA process?**
A: It is built to. Requirements come from Jira, Azure DevOps or files you already use, existing test cases can be reused, and results go back to the tools your team already checks.

## Why TestMax (https://www.testmax.ai/why-testmax)

**Test assets in minutes, not hours**

TestMax starts at the requirement and ends at the evidence. In between, your team stops drafting and starts reviewing.

### What the time savings look like
Human effort per task, by hand and with TestMax. TestMax time is 3 minutes supervising generation plus 5 minutes of review.
- **18.75x** faster test case creation: 15 test cases: 150 min by hand, 8 min with TestMax
- **15x** faster automation scripts: One script: 120 min by hand, 8 min with TestMax
- **3.75x** faster than an AI coding tool: One script: 30 min prompting, fixing and verifying, 8 min with TestMax
- **~93%** lower cost per test asset: 94% for test cases, 93% for scripts, at USD 30 an hour
Note: TestMax benchmark model, not client results. Assumes USD 30/hr; 10 min per manual test case; 2 hrs per manual script; 30 min per script with an AI coding tool; TestMax 3 min generation plus 5 min human review, AI usage included. Results vary by application and team; we validate them on your own requirements during a pilot.

### Start with intent. Test the real application.
Three ideas behind requirement-driven testing, shaped by recurring problems in Mammoth-AI's QA delivery work.
1. **Start with a testable requirement**: Ambiguous requirements carry gaps into test design and automation. TestMax scores quality and suggests fixes before a single test is written. Improve the input before automating the test.
2. **Understand the real application**: A user story alone doesn't reveal the full flow. App Scan supplies the actual screens, fields and workflow. If the login says Email Address, not Username, the tests know it.
3. **Keep the workflow connected**: Separate tools create handoffs. In TestMax, requirement, case, script, run and evidence stay linked, so any result traces back to the line that asked for it.

### How the approach changes day-to-day testing
Generation effort, language flexibility, execution, maintenance, reuse and fit.
| Area | Workflow challenge | With TestMax |
|---|---|---|
| Generation effort | Prompt-led work means preparing instructions and app context, again and again | One-click generation from prepared requirements, project context and App Scan |
| Language flexibility | Changing language or revising a script means work in a framework or editor | Convert scripts between five languages, edit via AI chat or code, export for reuse |
| Execution and evidence | Separate runners and reporting add setup before anyone sees a result | Built-in execution, live logs and evidence, in the same workspace |
| Maintenance | App changes mean locators and affected automation need review | Alternative locators and targeted re-scans support self-healing |
| Reuse | Existing cases and datasets need remapping between tools | Import cases, link requirements, use named or uploaded test-data variations |
| Enterprise fit | A fixed workflow makes teams bend their process around the tool | Enterprise customisation aligns TestMax with your QA process, with project access and roles |

### We own both ends of the chain
Most tools start at the test. TestMax starts at the requirement and ends at the evidence, the two steps auditors care about.
- **One chain, end to end**: Requirement, test, run, evidence. One record, no spreadsheet rebuild before the audit.
- **Open code you own**: Scripts are real code in TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Java or C#. Export them and keep them.
- **Quality gate first**: Requirements get checked for quality before automation starts, so weak input never becomes weak tests.
- **Built by a QA delivery team**: Mammoth-AI has run enterprise QA for banks, insurers and healthcare since 2018. TestMax productises that work, and 11 accounts already run on it.
- **Certified delivery**: Mammoth-AI is certified to ISO 9001:2015 for quality management and ISO 27001:2022 for information security.
- **System of record for quality**: Requirements, tests and evidence live in one place, so the history of every release stays readable.

### Terms we use
- **Requirement-driven testing**: An approach where every test starts from a written requirement and its acceptance criteria, so each test has a reason to exist and a record of what it proved.
- **App Scan**: TestMax's scan of your live application, used to ground generated tests in real screens, elements and flows. Guided mode lets a tester steer it; Autonomous mode lets AI explore.
- **Self-healing locators**: Fallback locators and page re-scans that let a test find an element again after the UI changes.

### Requirement-driven testing FAQ

**Q: What is requirement-driven testing?**
A: An approach where every test starts from a written requirement and its acceptance criteria, so each test has a clear reason to exist and a record of what it proved.

**Q: How much time does TestMax save?**
A: In the TestMax benchmark model, 15 test cases take 8 minutes instead of 150, and one automation script takes 8 minutes instead of 120. At 200 test cases and 50 scripts, that is about 125 engineering hours back per cycle. Results vary; we validate them on your own requirements during a pilot.

**Q: How is it different from using an AI coding tool?**
A: With a general AI coding tool, a tester still prompts, fixes and verifies each script, about 30 minutes in the benchmark. TestMax works from scored requirements, project context and a scan of your real application, so the same script takes 8 minutes and stays traceable.

**Q: Why does TestMax scan the app?**
A: A requirement says what should happen. The app shows how it is built. Scanning the live UI lets TestMax write steps and locators that match real screens instead of guessing.

**Q: Who built TestMax?**
A: TestMax is built by Mammoth-AI, drawing on its QA delivery work since 2018. Mammoth-AI is certified to ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 27001:2022.
