Plans Commands ​

Test plans in Qualflare organize test cases into structured execution plans, defining which cases should be run for a given release, milestone, or testing effort. The plans commands let you list plans and retrieve their case assignments from the command line.

qf myapp plans list ​

List test plans in your project. Results are output as pretty-printed JSON to stdout.

Syntax ​

bash
qf myapp plans list [flags]

Flags ​

FlagTypeDefaultDescription
--querystring""Filter plans by name or description
--pageint0Page number for paginated results
--sort-bystring""Field to sort results by (e.g., title, createdAt)
--sort-descboolfalseSort in descending order

Examples ​

bash
# List all test plans
qf myapp plans list

# Search for a plan by name
qf myapp plans list --query "regression"

# Sort by creation date, newest first
qf myapp plans list --sort-by createdAt --sort-desc

# Paginate through results
qf myapp plans list --page 2

    "state": "passed",
    "priority": "critical",
    "suiteSeq": 5
  },
  {
    "seq": 115,

    "state": "pending",
    "priority": "high",

    "state": "passed",
    "priority": "medium",
    "suiteSeq": 8
  }

Working with JSON Output ​

All plans commands output pretty-printed JSON, making them easy to pipe into jq for filtering and transformation.

bash
# Count total plans
qf myapp plans list | jq '.testPlans | length'

# Extract plan titles and case counts
qf myapp plans list | jq '.testPlans[] | {seq, title, caseCount}'

# Find plans with more than 50 cases
qf myapp plans list | jq '[.testPlans[] | select(.caseCount > 50)]'

# Count cases in plan #5 by state
qf myapp plan cases 5 | jq 'group_by(.state) | map({state: .[0].state, count: length})'

# Get all failing cases in a plan
qf myapp plan cases 5 | jq '[.[] | select(.state == "failed")] | .[].title'

# List all unique suites referenced by a plan
qf myapp plan cases 5 | jq '[.[].suiteSeq] | unique'
