Frequently asked questions

How does Probara’s pricing compare with Testmo?

Probara’s Pro plan costs $24 per user per month billed annually. Testmo sells bundles: Team costs $59 a month for 5 users or $99 for 10, the plan’s ceiling, and a larger team moves to Business, $249 a month for 15 users, which grows in 25-user steps. Probara bills each user from the first seat, with no seat minimum and no bundles, and on Pro, read-only viewers never take a seat, so they are free. A small team that fits a Team bundle can pay less with Testmo; Probara also has a Free plan for 3 users and 3 projects, and every new organization starts with a 14-day Pro trial, with no credit card.

Can I bring my test cases from Testmo?

Yes, through a spreadsheet today. Probara imports CSV and XLSX files laid out in its own template, suites and steps included, as well as its own JSON and XML: arrange your Testmo cases as the CSV import guide describes and import the file into a project. If you want Probara to read Testmo’s files directly, ask for it with Send feedback in the 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 status in sync both ways, link issues to the cases that cover them, and build coverage reports from them. Testmo also integrates with Jira.

Does Probara work with our automated tests and CI?

Yes, on the Pro plan. Probara’s reporters for Playwright, Jest, Cypress and Vitest send results into a run with their attachments and create any case that does not exist yet, and any other framework sends JUnit XML through the open-source Probara CLI. From a run you can launch GitHub Actions workflows, and Probara posts one results comment on each pull request. In Testmo, launching GitHub workflows is part of the Enterprise plan.

Can we use AI agents with Probara?

Yes, on every plan, Free included. Probara’s MCP server, with 270+ tools and operations, reached through up to 14 tools listed by default, lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP clients write cases, start runs, record results and file defects, with the same permissions as the person who connected them. Probara does not draft test cases on its own; Testmo’s MCP server is a closed beta, and its own AI case drafting is in beta.

Can Probara notify our other tools when tests run?

Yes, on the Pro plan. Probara sends signed webhooks, retried when a delivery fails, and every plan includes the REST API with its OpenAPI description. Testmo lists webhooks as proposed functionality that is not yet generally available.
