Case Study: SmartLabs achieves streamlined QA and faster release decisions with Zephyr for JIRA

SmartLabs broadcasts improved efficiency by streamlining QA processes with Zephyr for JIRA

SmartLabs, a Russia-based leader in service delivery platforms for interactive digital TV, set-top boxes and operator-grade IPTV/VoD solutions, needed robust QA across a wide range of products. Their prior test management tool, TestLink, was non-integrated, manual and hard to scale—its confusing UI and limited reporting made training slow and left project teams unable to reliably track test progress or release readiness.

By adopting Zephyr for JIRA, SmartLabs gained a native, easy-to-use test management workflow inside JIRA that lets teams create tests, run execution cycles, file defects and view live dashboards. The integrated reporting and simplified UI sped up onboarding, improved scaling of QA efforts, and gave project managers real-time visibility to determine if software was ready for release.
