    I'm a software tester since 2011. Become a Jira admin in 2013. Always wanted a tool which lives is inside jira and is a really cool test management app, where you can intuitively garden and execute your testing assets! When I decided to give it a go in 2016, found a tool which was almost perfect, called Kanoah Tests. That tool went through a lot, and as of today become one of the biggest app in jira (zephyr). But I found that they lost their mojo and stopped innovating, so after some very hard years I decided to quit my job and build my brand new test management app, just as i dreamed about…

    Hey HN, we're launching SprintZen – an AI-powered test case management platform that helps teams write, organize, and sync tests without the mess. It generates test cases from user stories or PRs, integrates with Jira, Linear, and Monday, and auto-reports bugs. We built this after working with 15+ startups (YC-backed and others) and seeing how painful test maintenance can get. Would love your feedback.

    Hey HN, I’m a product designer on a payments team. Every time we were close to shipping a feature, we’d run a bug bash in a giant Google doc or spreadsheet: copy the spec in, write the test cases, ask people to mark Pass/Fail, paste screenshots, then manually turn everything into Jira tickets. It worked, but it always felt a bit painful. Instead of another heavy test management tool, I wanted something that feels closer to the tools we actually like using. More Linear/Notion, less old-school QA. With Preflight, you paste your product requirements and Figma link and get an initial…

    I got sick of the old software development loop: Change code -> Run tests -> wait -> wait some more -> look at failures. I decided to build a tool that will enable you to: Change code -> look at failures. No wait time, no explicit test running. Under the hood: - Runs the whole test suite and collects code coverage per test. - For each auto file save, analyzes the changes on the tests. - Runs changed tests in the background. - Display results, the loop time from change to test results is approx 250ms. Instead of: code -> alt+tab -> arrow up -> rerun all the tests -> wait ... -> test results…
