Test management is foundational to meeting validation, audit, and software assurance requirements. Traditional tools treat tests as data in web forms. Qualityfolio treats them as structured knowledge: versioned, executable, and audit-ready for accountability.
Most test management systems were built before assurance became code. They store tests in proprietary databases, generate manual reports, and struggle with version control. When auditors ask for evidence, teams scramble to export PDFs and reconstruct history.
Qualityfolio takes a different approach: Tests are authored in Markdown with YAML metadata, versioned in Git, executed automatically, and stored as structured evidence in surveilr's SQL schema with integrity and accountability. This isn't just convenient; it's how assurance-first organizations operate.
Test management isn't a standalone activity; it's woven into every phase of your assurance program.
Identify test coverage needs based on regulatory requirements and risk analysis for governance
Tests serve as evidence of control effectiveness for validation
Ongoing test execution captures current assurance state
Query surveilr for historical evidence across any timeframe for accountability
Export formatted compliance packages with full traceability
Required for FDA 21 CFR Part 11. Complete change history tracked in Git with cryptographic hashes.
Build test libraries that reference shared regulatory fixtures and control frameworks.
Run in validated environments, air-gapped pharmaceutical labs, or production systems without modification.
Immutable timestamps and cryptographic hashes in surveilr satisfy auditor requirements for evidence integrity and accountability.
No vendor lock-in. Your assurance evidence remains accessible forever in open Markdown and SQL formats.
"In regulated industries, test management is assurance infrastructure. Qualityfolio recognizes this reality and delivers the evidence-grade traceability, immutable audit trails with accountability, and structured documentation with integrity that auditors require, without manual effort or data reconstruction."
