Getting started with version 6

You can work in the Windows client or the web application. Browser access requires the address of your Zeta Test installation and an authorized project account. Signing in to a project and accessing server administration are separate operations.

  1. Open an example project or ask for access to your team's project.
  2. Maintain requirements and test cases in the library. Record preconditions, steps and expected results.
  3. Add the required test cases to a test plan and start a test run.
  4. Record results, deviations and attachments. Link defects through the configured integration.
  5. Review results and reports. Not every role can modify test cases, results or settings.

If an action is missing or unavailable, ask the project owner to check your role and permissions. A server administrator configures the installation and its AI connections; this does not automatically grant additional project permissions.

AI is optional. Regular test-management workflows remain available without AI. Chat and AI workbenches additionally require a suitable provider profile, scenario assignments and the necessary permissions.

See Installation, Web installation, User management and AI administration.

For existing installations: version 5.2 manual.
