Turn a failed test into a useful Jira issue in one step

Carry the evidence forward automatically so the assignee starts with context instead of asking QA to reconstruct it.

Last updated July 10, 2026

Create actionable Jira issues from failed tests with error output, run metadata, and evidence already attached.

Direct answer

What is Issue creation in Testream?

Testream Issue Creation turns a failed automated test into an actionable Jira issue while preserving the error, run details, and connected artifacts that explain the failure.

The problem

Manual defect creation strips away the evidence engineers need

Copying an error message rarely preserves the exact run, environment, commit, or artifact behind the failure.

What teams gain

  • Create an issue from the failed test
  • Include error and run context
  • Keep artifacts and source evidence connected

How it works

A clear path from setup to useful evidence.

01

Inspect

Confirm the failure and its available evidence.

02

Create

Open the Jira issue flow directly from Testream.

03

Track

Keep the issue and originating test evidence connected during follow-up.
