Case Study: Stanford University achieves better test visibility and collaboration with QMetry Test Management and JIRA integration

Migrating from Excel to an integrated solution with JIRA and QMetry

Stanford University's HighWire Press, a major ePublishing platform supporting roughly 2,500 journals and scholarly works, faced growing QA challenges as its distributed team managed test cases in Excel. The approach lacked formal processes, reporting or visual analytics, and the team required a test management solution with strong JIRA integration to link tests, requirements and defects.

QMetry Test Management provided a seamless migration from Excel and a bi‑directional JIRA integration, giving the team centralized test suites, powerful charting and reporting, and a single place for comments and collaboration. The result was improved visibility and productivity, better linking of test cases to requirements and defects, and measurable efficiencies aided by responsive QMetry support.
