About PractiTest MCP Server
Connect your PractiTest workspaces to any AI agent and empower it to orchestrate the entire QA lifecycle from physical requirements tracing to defect mapping natively via chat conversations.
AutoGen enables multi-agent conversations where agents negotiate, delegate, and collaboratively use PractiTest tools. Connect 10 tools through Vinkius and assign role-based access. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates, with optional human-in-the-loop approval for sensitive operations.
What you can do
- Test Cases & Sets — Tell the AI to investigate any Test Case or Test Set, discovering exact preconditions and expected results (
list_tests,get_test,list_sets) - Test Instances & Runs — Retrieve deep execution histories pinpointing exactly which step caused a regression bounding PASSED/FAILED statuses (
list_runs) - Requirements Tracking — Audit physical system compliance extracting arrays dictating QA delivery thresholds (
list_requirements) - Issue Mapping — Find exact Software Defects bound natively to QA traces verifying complex failure logic (
list_issues)
The PractiTest MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to AutoGen in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use AutoGen with the PractiTest MCP Server
AutoGen provides unique advantages when paired with PractiTest through the Model Context Protocol.
Multi-agent conversations: multiple AutoGen agents discuss, delegate, and collaboratively use PractiTest tools to solve complex tasks
Role-based architecture lets you assign PractiTest tool access to specific agents. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates
Human-in-the-loop support: agents can pause for human approval before executing sensitive PractiTest tool calls
Code execution sandbox: AutoGen agents can write and run code that processes PractiTest tool responses in an isolated environment
PractiTest + AutoGen Use Cases
Practical scenarios where AutoGen combined with the PractiTest MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Collaborative analysis: one agent queries PractiTest while another validates results and a third generates the final report
Automated review pipelines: a researcher agent fetches data from PractiTest, a critic agent evaluates quality, and a writer produces the output
Interactive planning: agents negotiate task allocation using PractiTest data to make informed decisions about resource distribution
Code generation with live data: an AutoGen coder agent writes scripts that process PractiTest responses in a sandboxed execution environment
PractiTest MCP Tools for AutoGen (10)
These 10 tools become available when you connect PractiTest to AutoGen via MCP:
get_set
Get full details of a PractiTest test set including name, status, instances count, and execution summary
get_test
Get full details of a PractiTest test case including name, description, preconditions, steps, expected results, custom fields, and requirement links
list_custom_fields
List all custom fields in a PractiTest project. Returns field names, types, applicable entities, and possible values
list_instances
List all test instances in a PractiTest test set. Instances are test-set-specific copies of test cases. Returns instance IDs, test references, and last run statuses
list_issues
List all issues (defects) in a PractiTest project. Returns issue names, statuses, severities, and linked test references
list_requirements
List all requirements in a PractiTest project. Requirements provide traceability to test cases and defects. Returns names, statuses, and linked test counts
list_runs
List all runs for a PractiTest test instance. Runs record actual test execution results. Returns run IDs, statuses (PASSED/FAILED/BLOCKED/NOT_RUN/N_A), durations, and timestamps
list_sets
List all test sets in a PractiTest project. Test sets group test instances for execution. Returns set names, statuses, planned/actual dates, and assigned testers
list_tests
List all test cases in a PractiTest project. PractiTest is an end-to-end test management platform with traceability from requirements to defects. Returns test names, IDs, statuses, custom fields, and traceability links. Uses JSON:API format
list_users
List all users in the PractiTest account. Returns user names, emails, roles, and statuses
Example Prompts for PractiTest in AutoGen
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your AutoGen agent to start working with PractiTest immediately.
"List all tests inside our active QA regression instance and find the ones mapped as failed."
"Do we have any new custom fields we should be aware of inside the requirements area?"
"Are there any open defects (issues) linked directly to testing scenarios surrounding multi-currency operations?"
