Create Test Suite

create_test_suite

Creates a new test suite node in the hierarchy tree, allowing you to specify name, project, tree, and parent suite for nested organization.

Instructions

Create a new test suite node in the hierarchy tree.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
nameYesSuite name to create in hierarchy.
tree_idNoTarget hierarchy tree ID. If omitted, default project tree is used.
project_idNoAllure TestOps project ID.
output_formatNoOutput format: 'json' (default) or 'plain'.
parent_suite_idNoParent suite/group node ID for nested suite creation.
Behavior2/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations indicate mutation (readOnlyHint=false) but no destructive or idempotent behavior. The description adds no extra behavioral context (e.g., uniqueness constraints, permissions, side effects). No contradiction with annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Single sentence with no filler, directly conveying the tool's core function. Efficient and front-loaded.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Despite having 5 parameters and no output schema, the description omits context like return values, nesting behavior, or default tree implications, which would aid an agent in proper invocation.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema covers all parameters (100% description coverage), so baseline is 3. Description adds no additional meaning beyond schema, such as clarifying the nesting behavior or default formats.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the action (create), resource (test suite node), and context (hierarchy tree), distinguishing it from siblings like delete_test_suite or create_test_case.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as assign_test_cases_to_suite or other create tools. The description does not mention prerequisites or context.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
