Xray, the leading test management solution for Jira, has launched AI-powered testing capabilities via the Sembi IQ platform, enabling smarter, faster, and safer test design without sacrificing human oversight. Unlike “one-shot” AI generators, Xray’s tools allow testers to review, edit, and approve AI suggestions, keeping expert judgment central to software quality.

“With Xray’s AI-powered testing features, teams design better tests faster and make release decisions sooner—without changing tools or sacrificing control,” said João Valença, General Manager at Xray.

Accelerating Test Design with AI

Xray Cloud introduces AI Test Case Generation, which converts written requirements, preconditions, and coverable issues into structured test cases in seconds. Key features include:

• Faster test design: Manual and Cucumber-style tests generated quickly from requirements

• Human-in-the-loop control: Review AI-suggested test titles and descriptions before creation

• Granular access control: Manage AI availability using Jira’s permission schemes

• Data privacy: Encrypted data in transit; not used for model training

• Bulk and partial generation: Create multiple test cases efficiently while maintaining precision

Smarter Modeling with AI

Xray Enterprise offers AI Test Model Generation, creating visual system models directly from requirement content. Benefits include:

• Rapid model drafting: Generate initial parameters and values from objectives

• Flexible input: Works with diverse text-based documents

• Iterative refinement: Regenerate parts or the entire model quickly

• Granular control: Accept or reject AI-suggested elements individually or in bulk

“This approach allows teams to move quickly from high-level objectives to ready-to-run models with fewer handoffs and less manual overhead,” said Joana Fonseca, Lead Product Manager for Xray.

Jira-Native AI for QA and DevOps

By embedding Sembi IQ intelligence directly into Jira, Xray’s AI features streamline QA and DevOps workflows, reducing delays, minimizing rework, and maintaining full transparency. Existing users can deploy AI-assisted testing immediately, enjoying productivity gains without process overhauls while preserving enterprise-grade governance and data security.

Xray’s move signals a shift toward intelligent, human-centered AI in software testing, giving teams faster, safer, and more controlled paths from requirements to release.
