Does this tool automate actual user interface tests on websites?

No. TestMonitor is essentially a Test Management Hub. You document your cases, requirements, runs, and defect reports structurally. The MCP server reads this deep structural data allowing the AI to help correlate bugs to requirements and plan sprints—it does not inherently control a web-browser headless tester to run things.

Which ID should I pass to fetch Test Runs or Cases?

Almost all context actions downstream require a `project_id`. Start by telling your prompt: 'List all my TestMonitor projects'. Take the numeric ID corresponding to your target platform, then use it as the anchor for subsequent 'list test cases', 'list runs', or 'list issues' queries.

Where do I track the Personal Access Token setting?

It is tied to your individual profile. Log in via web, go to the top right avatar, pick 'My Account', open the 'API' sub-tab, and hit 'Create Token'. Copy it precisely because it is obscured upon closing.

TestMonitor + Claude Desktop FAQ

Common questions about integrating TestMonitor MCP Server with Claude Desktop.

How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?

When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.

What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?

Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.

Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?

Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.

Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?

Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.

Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?

Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.
