Create a project in TestRail
TestRail is a web-based test case management tool that allows team members to enter test cases, organize test suites, execute test runs, and track their results through a web interface. The Platform provides a TestRail cloud instance to create, execute, and maintain manual test plans. On this page you’ll learn some initial preparation steps for accessing and using TestRail, and how to create a project in TestRail using a short video tutorial to help get you started.
