Status note (checked 11 November 2026): Klaros-Testmanagement is end of life. Release notes on the vendor’s GitHub repository describe 5.7.5 (October 2025) as the final planned release and 5.7.6 (December 2025) as the final maintenance release. The official website did not respond from our test environment on 11 November 2026.

Introduction

Klaros-Testmanagement is a web-based test management tool from verit Informationssysteme GmbH in Kaiserslautern, Germany, on the market since 2010. Its site describes central test case management with versioning and reuse, requirements and defect management integration, support for agile and classical processes, test coordination, and reporting, with interfaces to over 40 tools.

Klaros is reaching end of life. The release notes on its GitHub Docker repository describe version 5.7.5 (October 2025) as the final planned release and version 5.7.6 (25 December 2025) as the final maintenance release. When CheckOps checked in November 2026, the official website did not respond over HTTPS from our test environment.

Existing users can keep running on-premises installations, but new teams should choose an actively developed tool.

Features

1. Test case management: Versioned, reusable test cases shared across projects.
2. Requirements: Create requirements or synchronise them from external tools.
3. Defect integration: Pass defects to external bug trackers with cross-references.
4. Test coordination: Plan, assign and track test jobs.
5. Reports: Configurable dashboard and predefined reports.
6. On-premises or cloud: Installed or on-demand editions.

Pros

1. Mature feature set: Long history and broad integrations.
2. Self-hosting: On-premises edition for data control.

Cons

1. End of life: The vendor’s release notes describe 5.7.6 as the final maintenance release.
2. Website availability: The official site was not reachable from our test environment at review time.

Usage and Links (Example)

Existing users should stay on 5.7.6, export test cases and results, and plan migration to a maintained tool. Klaros supports import and export, which helps move data to tools such as TestLink or a SaaS product.

When choosing a replacement, compare self-hosted options for teams that need data on their own servers and SaaS tools for teams that do not, and test the import of a representative Klaros export before committing.

Pricing

Historically sold as on-premises licences or a cloud service; see site, noting the end-of-life status.

Recommended for?

• Existing Klaros users planning migration
• Teams that need to keep a legacy on-premises installation running while they move

Conclusion

Klaros-Testmanagement was a capable German test management product, but its vendor has published its final maintenance release. Treat it as legacy and migrate to an active alternative.
