A manual run executes and tracks manual test cases for a release. It records the status of each test case and step, along with execution time and results. Attach files, add notes, and link issues directly within the run to keep test tracking in one place.
Manual test runs start on the Pro plan. Pro includes 10 runs per month, Team includes 100, and Enterprise is custom. The Community plan does not include manual runs. See Pricing.
