Project structure
Hierarchic organization vs. flat repository
Q12-TMT enables scalability for agile, classic and hybrid test projects - ideal for growing teams and complex IT landscapes. While in Klaros Test Management, test artifacts are managed in flat repositories, in Q12-TMT you benefit from project hierarchies with inheritance and domain-driven tree structures.

Prioritization
Risk assessment at the push of a button vs. manual analysis
Q12-TMT integrates risk-based testing methods and multi-layered risk analysis directly into the tool. Unlike Klaros Test Management, which offers manual possibility to set priorities for test artifacts or to define risk fields by yourself, prioritization in Q12-TMT is data-driven and automated in order to identify critical test areas specifically and without manual effort.

Software lifecycle support
Tool-based version management vs. individual revisions
Q12-TMT supports parallel software development threads through semantic versioning and intelligent links: In contrast to Klaros Test Management, which uses non-semantic revisions on individual test artifacts, in Q12-TMT you manage major, minor, and patch releases with integrated version management to always keep control over test coverage in all phases of your software lifecycle.
