On Pro, read-only viewers are free and never take a seat, and the Free plan covers 3 users with no time limit.

### Can we move our test cases from PractiTest to Probara?

Yes. Probara imports test cases from CSV and XLSX files laid out in its import template, with their suites and steps, so a spreadsheet of your PractiTest tests moves them today: arrange the columns to match the template described in the CSV import guide and import the file into a project. If you would rather have Probara read PractiTest’s export directly, or bring over anything else, ask for it with Send feedback in your profile menu in the app, or through the contact page before you sign up, and the team adds support for it.

### Does Probara work with Jira?

Yes, with Jira Cloud on the Pro plan: create Jira issues from defects and failed results with their steps and evidence, keep their status in sync both ways, link issues to the test cases that cover them, and build coverage reports from them.

### How do automated test results get into Probara?

On Pro, Probara’s reporters for Playwright, Jest, Cypress and Vitest send each CI run into a test run with its attachments and create the cases the report names that do not exist yet. JUnit XML from any other framework goes in through the open-source Probara CLI, and on GitHub you can launch Actions workflows from a run and get one results comment on each pull request.

### Can AI agents work in Probara without an enterprise plan?

Yes. Probara’s MCP server, with 270+ tools and operations, reached through up to 14 tools listed by default, is included on every plan, Free included. Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP clients write test cases, start runs, record results and file defects with the same permissions as the person who connected them. PractiTest offers its MCP integration only on Corporate, which is quoted and requires ten licenses.

### Can our team use Probara in Spanish?

Yes. Every screen in Probara is available in English and Spanish, and plans are priced in USD, EUR, MXN, BRL and COP. PractiTest’s interface is offered in English, Japanese and German, and its prices are in USD.
