Amazon Nova Act: test management and team-based access in QA Studio
In brief
- QA Studio adds applications to group tests and display health metrics per system under test.
- Team-based access management with cumulative roles and a ceiling rule for shared permissions.
- Metrics (pass rates, executions, flaky tests) are tracked via Amazon CloudWatch and shown on a dedicated page.
Amazon introduces new features for QA Studio, its QA automation solution built on Amazon Nova Act. According to the company, these additions address challenges in organizing tests and controlling access as QA automation scales across multiple teams.
The two new capabilities include an applications system to group tests and display health metrics, and team-based access management. Each application represents a system under test (website, app, service) and centralizes tests, test suites, and their owner. Metrics such as pass rates or execution counts are tracked via Amazon CloudWatch and displayed on a dedicated page, with a health score adjusted for flaky tests. Access management assigns roles (Viewer, Editor, Team Lead, etc.) to each member, with cumulative permissions and a ceiling rule for shared access between teams.
These tools integrate with QA Studio’s serverless architecture and complement existing features like natural language test definition or batch execution via CLI. They target organizations where multiple teams use QA automation, clarifying test ownership and facilitating collaboration without losing control over access.
