Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
Testrail Mcp ServerCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Obtain a TestRail API key from My Settings → API Keys. Then add the server to your MCP client configuration (e.g., Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf) by providing the npx command and the three required environment variables: TESTRAIL_INSTANCE_URL, TESTRAIL_USERNAME, and TESTRAIL_API_KEY. Once configured, you can instruct your AI assistant to perform TestRail operations in natural language.
query_project
Retrieve a single project or all projects in TestRail. Set payload.action to 'one' or 'many' to specify the operation.
mutate_suite
Create a new test suite or update an existing one in TestRail. Set payload.action to 'create' or 'update' to specify the operation.
query_suite
Retrieve a single test suite or all test suites for a project in TestRail. Set payload.action to 'one' or 'many' to specify the operation.
get_case
Get detailed information about a test case including its custom fields
get_cases
Get all test cases for a project. Filter by section, API params (priority, type), or any field including custom fields via 'where'. Returns case IDs, titles, and any additional requested fields.
get_case_fields
Get the field schema for test cases for a specific project. You should normally provide project_id to get fields applicable to your project. If you truly need all fields across all projects, you may omit project_id, but this is rarely what you want. Returns available fields with their types and options (for dropdown fields).
update_case
Update a test case in TestRail. The update operation requires knowing valid field names that are returned by get_case_fields tool. Supports partial updates — only specify the fields you want to change.
update_cases
Bulk update multiple test cases with the same field values. The update operation requires knowing valid field names that are returned by get_case_fields tool. More efficient than calling update_case multiple times.
add_case
Create a new test case in TestRail. The create operation requires knowing valid field names that are returned by get_case_fields tool.
get_sections
Get all sections for a project. Returns section IDs and names that can be used with add_case
mutate_section
Create a new section or update an existing section in TestRail. Set payload.action to 'create' or 'update' to specify the operation.
mutate_run
Create a new test run or update an existing one in TestRail. Set payload.action to 'create' or 'update' to specify the operation.
query_run
Retrieve a single test run or all test runs for a project in TestRail. Set payload.action to 'one' or 'many' to specify the operation.
add_attachment_to_run
Add an attachment to a test run in TestRail. (Deprecated: Prefer add_attachment tool). Maximum upload size is 256MB.
add_results
Add one or more test results to a test run
add_results_for_cases
Add one or more test results to a test run using case IDs instead of test IDs
get_results
Get results for a specific test in TestRail.
add_attachment
Add an attachment to a test case or test run in TestRail. If the file_path points to a directory, it will be automatically zipped before uploading. Maximum upload size is 256MB.
query_attachment
Download a single attachment or list all attachments for a test case or test run in TestRail. Set payload.action to 'one' or 'many' to specify the operation.
get_configurations
Get all configuration groups and configurations for a project in TestRail.
get_labels
Get all available test case labels (sometimes called tags) for a project. Returns label IDs and titles that can be used when creating or updating test cases.
get_priorities
Get all available test case priorities (e.g. Critical, High, Medium, Low). Returns priority IDs and names that can be used when creating or updating test cases.
get_statuses
Get all available test statuses (e.g. Passed, Failed, Blocked). Returns status IDs and names that can be used with add_result and get_tests
get_templates
Get available test case templates for a project. Template IDs determine which fields are available when creating or updating test cases
get_tests
Get tests for a test run, optionally filtered by status
get_users
Get active users from TestRail. Resolves active users globally or per-project. If global fetch is forbidden (for non-admin accounts), falls back to merging users across all active projects so users referenced as reviewers or assignees can be resolved.

🌟 Why Choose TestRail MCP Server?
Managing test cases manually is tedious and error-prone. With the TestRail MCP Server, your AI assistant (whether it’s Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compliant client) interacts directly with your TestRail instance. Instruct it to find test cases, draft new ones, kick off test runs, and record test results—all through natural conversation. No context switching. No tedious copy-pasting.
