What ThoroTest is
ThoroTest is a self-hosted test management platform that brings manual and automated tests into a shared run history. Teams can link features, stories, and epics to tests and review coverage summaries. It imports test cases or results from TestRail, TestLink, Zephyr Scale, Xray, qTest, JUnit, Allure, Excel, and CSV. Integrations include two-way Jira connections, GitHub and GitLab YAML test synchronization, and pipeline runs through GitHub Actions and GitLab CI. Optional AI tools draft test cases, suggest edge cases, and analyze flaky tests using an Anthropic or OpenAI-compatible provider key. REST and GraphQL APIs, API tokens, and signed webhooks are available. Authentication features include JWT, role-based access, TOTP two-factor authentication, OAuth, and audit logging. The maker says the self-hosted product has no telemetry and can run airgapped with locally served assets. It supports several databases, with PostgreSQL recommended for production. The self-hosted plan is free, but its MIT plus Commons Clause license prohibits selling it as a product or service, including cloud or SaaS hosting. A managed hosted edition is described, but no price is listed.
