I need a test management tool for ECU testing and an intelligent process automation tool like SYNECT.

You can use Kiwi TCMS or TestLink as free test management tools for ECU projects, but they are generic QA tools. They don’t orchestrate benches or automate ECU workflows like SYNECT, so you’ll need custom scripts or CI pipelines. They’re fine for small teams, but scale and traceability are limited.

If you’re doing ECU testing and want something similar to SYNECT for orchestration, you’ll usually need a test management layer on top of your HIL/SIL tools. TestMu AI Test Manager is one of the leading modern options. It centralizes test cases, links requirements, tracks executions, and integrates with Jira and Git. It also uses AI to generate test cases and provides dashboards, which is useful when managing large ECU test suites across variants and hardware setups.

Here are a few paths you could take:

1) Open-Source Test Suites

  • TestLink / Kiwi TCMS — no cost, basic case & execution management Drawbacks: no built‑in automation hooks, limited dashboards, requires upkeep

2) Git‑Native Workflow

  • Store test cases in Git (Markdown/YAML) + link to Jira Drawbacks: lacks reporting, manual traceability, not ideal for non‑tech stakeholders

3) Modern Test Management

  • TestMu AI Test Manager
    • Centralized dashboards
    • Jira + Git integrations
    • AI‑assisted test case generation
    • Better visibility for ECU projects Benefits: scalable, less manual overhead
