Linear Integration

Every Linear issue, tested — and updated back.

TestOrchestrator’s Linear integration brings AI-powered test management to your issues: generate and link test cases, see how every linked issue relates, and — with the new QA Agent — let closed test runs post their results straight back to the issue, with risky changes held for your approval.

AI Insight

Know why an issue is linked — not just that it is.

Human decisions. AI speed.

Every linked Linear issue gets a one-tap AI summary explaining how it relates to the test case. When the model can’t find a real connection, it says so — and offers to change the relation, unlink, or re-check. No blank boxes, no guessing.

On every card

An honest read on each connection.

Generate a summary on demand, regenerate when the issue evolves, and trust a low-relevance flag to catch links made by mistake. The insight lives right on the issue card, next to the relation and status.

Try it → hit Generate on the second card, or Regenerate on the first.

Generate from Linear

Mention the agent in an issue — without leaving Linear.

@mention TestOrchestrator in any Linear issue comment. The agent reads the issue, drafts structured cases against your project template, links them back to the issue, and replies in the thread — no other tab, no copy-paste.

Agent, in your comments

Mention the agent. Get linked coverage back.

The whole flow happens in the Linear comment box. Title, priority, steps, and expected result map to your project’s fields — not flattened into a generic shape — and every case auto-links to the issue it came from.

Try it → hit Send to mention the agent.

Search & link

Find the right issue and link it — right where you are.

Search your Linear workspace by key or title from inside the test case. Pick an issue and it’s linked instantly, with its status and relation carried across. No tab-hopping, no pasted URLs.

Live search

Type a few characters. Link in one click.

The picker reads straight from Linear, so what you see is always current. Issues you link appear immediately on the case — ready for an AI summary.

Try it → type in the search box (e.g. slack or TES) and click a result.

Traceability

The loop closes automatically.

Generated or linked, every test case points back to the Linear issue that justified it — and results flow back the other way. Open either side and the connection is right there.

Run result

Posted back to Linear

Pass / fail is commented on the issue — non-blocking, never lost.

QA Agent

When a run closes, the agent updates Linear for you.

You stay in control.

Close a test run and the QA Agent reads every result that maps to a Linear issue, writes a developer-facing summary of what passed, failed, or regressed, and posts it back to the issue. A regression can reopen the issue; the higher-stakes moves — closing an issue, filing a bug sub-issue — always wait for a human to approve.

Proactive, not pushy

Analysis on every closed run. Action on your terms.

The agent is off until you turn it on, and posting to Linear is a separate switch. Low-risk updates — a summary comment, reopening a regressed issue, a needs-fix label — run automatically once you enable auto-actions. Closing an issue or filing a bug always lands in an approval queue first.

Every decision — posted, queued, or skipped — is written to an activity log, so there’s always a trail of what the agent did and why.
