About SmartBear MCP
SmartBear MCP connects AI assistants to SmartBear's testing and monitoring products, including BugSnag, Reflect, Swagger, PactFlow, QMetry, QTM4J, Zephyr, BearQ and Collaborator. You can query test data, look into errors and manage test automation from your AI app.
It runs as one local npm package that bundles every product, started with the API tokens of the products you use. For BugSnag, Swagger and Zephyr, SmartBear also hosts remote servers you connect to by URL, with sign-in through OAuth in the browser and no tokens or Node.js needed. It suits QA, API and development teams that already use SmartBear tools.
