Built a Chrome/Edge extension to speed up Azure DevOps test case creation — looking for feedback

I know a lot of you are doing manual testing in Azure DevOps — recording steps, attaching screenshots, and creating bugs from failed steps.

I’ve tried using Test & Feedback, but honestly it hasn’t been updated in a while and still feels clunky for day-to-day use.

So I built a browser extension to make this easier.

It’s called ADO Test Helper Suite (currently pending approval in Chrome and Edge stores — should be live within a few days).

Main things it does:

  • Record test steps automatically as you click through an app
  • Instantly attach screenshots to steps (no extra copy/paste flow)
  • Insert/edit/reorder steps easily
  • Run test cases and create bugs directly from failed steps
  • View assigned test cases by test plan/suite/tester

Everything runs locally in your browser — no backend, nothing stored externally.

Here’s a quick demo if you’re curious:

I’m actively improving it (next up is a dashboard for assigned work), so if you do a lot of manual testing in ADO, I’d honestly love feedback — especially what’s annoying in your current workflow.
