# zephyr_get_test_executions

Get test executions with optional filters Parameters: - projectKey (string): Jira project key filter - testCycle (string): Test cycle key filter. - testCase (string): Test case key filter. - actualEndDateAfter (string): Filter for 'Actual End Date' after the given time. Format: yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z' - actualEndDateBefore (string): Filter for 'Actual End Date' before the given time. Format: yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z' - includeStepLinks (boolean): If true, execution step issue links will be included in the response (default: false) - jiraProjectVersionId (number): Jira Project Version ID. Relates to 'Version' or 'Releases' in Jira projects. - onlyLastExecutions (boolean): If true, includes only the last execution of each test cycle item (test case), and all ad-hoc test executions. (default: false) - limit (number): Specifies the maximum number of results to return in a single call. The default value is 10, and the maximum value that can be requested is 1000. Note that the server may enforce a lower limit than requested, depending on resource availability or other internal constraints. If this happens, the result set may be truncated. Always check the limit value in the response to confirm how many results were actually returned. (default: 10) - startAtId (number): Zero-indexed starting position for ID-based pagination. (default: 0) Examples: 1. Get the first 10 test executions json { "limit": 10, "startAtId": 0 } Expected Output: The first 10 test executions with their details 2. Get 5 test executions for the project PROJ json { "projectKey": "PROJ", "limit": 5 } Expected Output: Up to 5 test executions for project PROJ 3. Get some test executions that finished after 01/Jan/2024 json { "actualEndDateAfter": "2024-01-01T00:00:00Z" } Expected Output: Test executions that ended after 2024-01-01 4. Get test executions with step links included json { "includeStepLinks": true } Expected Output: Test executions with step links included

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "zephyr_get_test_executions",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why zephyr_get_test_executions is rated Low

This tool retrieves test execution data from Zephyr (Jira's test management integration) with filtering options. It has no side effects, does not create, modify, delete, or execute anything—it only queries and returns existing test execution records. The includeStepLinks parameter merely controls what fields are returned in the response, not what data is affected.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'get' and description states 'Get test executions with optional filters'. Parameters are all query filters (projectKey, testCycle, testCase, date ranges, boolean include flag) with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities."

Risk signals: High parameter count (10 properties)

## Use case

AI agents call zephyr_get_test_executions to retrieve information from SmartBear MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches SmartBear MCP:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "zephyr_get_test_executions": {}
  }
}
```
