Vansah Intelligence (AI) – Test Case Generation

Trigger Generation

From Jira Work Item (Story/Epic/Bug) → Select “Generate Tests with Vansah AI”

Configure Coverage

Choose scope & test types (Happy path, Negative/Edge cases, Boundary, Non-functional)

AI Draft Creation

AI produces test title, objective, preconditions, steps, expected results, trace links, labels

Human Review

Edit, accept/reject steps, regenerate, or expand cases

Save & Link

Creates Jira-native test(s), auto-links to requirements, records provenance

Vansah Intelligence uses Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate test cases only from the information you explicitly provide. It does not access Jira credentials, secrets, or unrelated data.

What Context Does Vansah Intelligence (AI) Use?

Use this checklist when evaluating test management solutions to ensure you’re getting a complete, enterprise-ready tool that will grow with your needs.

Included Context

  • Jira Work Item: Summary & Description
  • Optional Fields: Jira Custom Fields, Components, Labels, Priority
  • Acceptance criteria (if mapped)
  • Your explicit prompts (e.g., “Generate boundary tests”)
  • Your conventions (Gherkin vs procedural)

Never Included

  • Passwords, secrets, tokens
  • User credentials
  • Execution results or logs
  • Sensitive fields (can be explicitly excluded)
  • Unrelated Jira data outside the work item

Vansah applies the principle of data minimization – using only what’s necessary to generate quality Test Cases.

Title & Objective

Title: “Checkout – Apply percentage discount with expired promo (negative)”

Steps & Expected Results

  1. Navigate to checkout page
  2. Enter expired promo code “SALE2023“
  3. Click “Apply“
  4. Expected:
    • System displays “Promo code expired” message
    • Order totals remain unchanged

Metadata & Traceability

  • Links: Story AC#3

  • Generation method: Vansah AI

Each generated test maintains complete traceability to both the source requirement and the person who approved it, ensuring accountability.

Customer Responsibilities & Best Practices

While Vansah provides the technical safeguards, your team plays a crucial role in ensuring sensitive information isn’t unnecessarily included in test case content.

Use Placeholders for Sensitive Data

  • Avoid embedding sensitive PII (patient data, financial information) in test cases
  • Example: Use “[CUSTOMER_EMAIL]” instead of actual emails or Test Data and not real data.

Review AI Privacy Settings

  • Ensure AI privacy & residency settings comply with internal policies
  • Configure which fields are included/excluded from AI processing

Unlike add-ons that sit outside Jira, Vansah keeps all your testing where your development already happens: inside Jira. From real-time dashboards to automation pipelines, AI-powered insights, and enterprise-level data residency support, Vansah ensures your testing process is connected, visible, and compliant.
