Quorum vs Qase
Looking for a Qase alternative?
Start by keeping Qase.
Quorum Designer writes the test cases of a Jira story with AI, asks about the rules the story leaves open, and sends what your QA accepts into Qase. Quorum Reporter, coming soon, is test management at about a third of Qase Teams’ per-user list price.
One free trial per person. Card needed; cancel before day 7 and pay nothing. Works with the Qase you already have.
Side by side
Qase and Quorum,
row by row.
What each one is, what it costs and how it works with Jira. Qase’s column comes from its own pages as of October 2026; tags show which Quorum product a row is about.
What it is
- Qase
- A test management platform: test cases, runs, defects and reports, with AI features (Qase AI).
- Quorum
- DesignerReporterComing soonDesigner designs the test cases of a Jira story with AI. Reporter keeps, runs and reports on them.
Pricing model
- Qase
- Per user. Free plan up to 4 users; the Teams plan is for 5 users or more; Enterprise is priced on request.
- Quorum
- Per person: Designer per person who designs cases, Reporter per tester. Never per user of your Jira site.
List price
- Qase
- Teams: $35 per user a month billed yearly, $42 billed monthly. Collaborator (view and comment) seats $10 a month.
- Quorum
- Designer Pro $39 a month or $390 a year (Power $79). Reporter $12 per tester a month or $120 a year.
Free plan and trial
- Qase
- Free forever up to 4 users, 2 projects and 30 days of test history. A 14-day trial of Teams with no credit card.
- Quorum
- No free plan. A 7-day free trial, card needed, one per person.
Jira integration
- Qase
- “Qase for Jira”, a Forge app on the Atlassian Marketplace: links cases, runs and defects to Jira issues and shows them in panels on the issue. A separate plugin for Jira Server and Data Center. Integrations are not included on the Free plan.
- Quorum
- A separate web app connected to Jira Cloud with an API token: nothing to install in Jira. Jira Server and Data Center are not supported.
AI test case generation
- Qase
- Qase AI’s AI Test Designer generates manual test cases from a Jira, GitHub, Notion or Confluence issue; you review, discard and save. 2,000 AI credits a month on Teams, none on Free.
- Quorum
- DesignerDesigner reads the story, its epic and linked tickets, drafts the suite and turns each rule the story leaves open into a question instead of a guess. Every case and every change is a proposal your QA accepts.
Bugs from failed tests
- Qase
- From a defect raised in a run, create a new Jira issue or link an existing one.
- Quorum
- ReporterComing soonFrom a failed result, AI drafts the Jira bug (steps, expected and actual result, environment). Nothing is created until a person accepts it.
Import from other tools
- Qase
- Imports from TestRail, Zephyr, Xray, TestLink, qTest and more, plus Qase’s own XML, JSON and CSV.
- Quorum
- No automatic import yet. Designer sends new cases to your current tool, so you can start without moving anything.
Hosting
- Qase
- Cloud, on AWS. A dedicated cluster is an Enterprise add-on.
- Quorum
- Cloud only, for Jira Cloud.
What Quorum adds
AI-assisted.
Never autonomous.
In our view, a test case is only as good as the rule it checks, and generating first leaves the cleanup to you. That is why the AI asks, proposes and drafts, and a person decides.
AI that asks instead of guessing
When a story leaves a rule open, Designer asks, with concrete options: blocking when the answer changes what a case expects, an assumption stated out loud when it does not. Cases that rest on an open question are flagged.
DesignerProposals your QA reviews
Every new case and every change arrives as a proposal, a diff your QA accepts, edits or rejects. Nothing reaches Jira or your test tool until a person accepts it.
DesignerBug drafts, not bug spam
From a failed result, Reporter’s AI drafts the Jira bug from the case, the failed step, your note and the story. A person edits and accepts it; only then is it created and linked.

Which to choose
Pick the tool
that fits your team.
Qase is the better choice for some teams, and we would rather say so here than lose your trust later. Or use both: Designer works with Qase.
Choose Qase if
- A free plan covers you: up to 4 users, 2 projects, 30 days of history.
- You need to import existing cases from TestRail, Zephyr, Xray or another tool today.
- You run Jira Server or Data Center.
- You want AI that turns manual cases into Playwright, Cypress or Selenium scripts (Qase’s AI QA Architect).
Choose Quorum if
- Your stories leave rules open, and you want the AI to ask about them instead of inventing an answer.
- You want to keep Qase and add AI test design in front of it: Designer sends to Qase.
- You want test management at $12 per tester a month (Reporter) rather than Qase Teams’ $35.
- You want every AI change as a proposal your QA accepts, case by case.

- A price comparison, not a feature one: other tools do things Reporter’s first version does not, such as importing cases or CI results, custom fields and shared steps.
Moving from Qase
No import wizard yet.
Nothing to move today.
Quorum cannot import your Qase cases automatically today, and we will not pretend it can. This is how teams start without moving anything.
- 01
Keep Qase, add Designer
Nothing moves. Point a Jira project at Qase and Designer creates the accepted cases there, attached to their story.
- 02
Switch at the next release
When Reporter launches, new cases go into a Reporter folder. Recreate only the regression cases you still run.
- 03
Keep the history
Leave Qase read-only for its old runs until you no longer need them. We can plan the move with you, folder by folder.
