OKR template to increase automation coverage of manual test cases to 50%
This leadership OKR template is a strong starting point for teams that need better alignment, clearer priorities, and more disciplined goal tracking.
Use it to turn a business priority into a measurable objective, then review progress weekly so your team can adjust execution before the quarter gets away from you.

The second objective is to develop and implement automation scripts for 25% of the identified test cases by week 6. Implementing developed automation scripts, identifying the most suitable test cases for automation, and developing scripts for 25% of these identified tests are key for achieving this target.
The final objective is to achieve 50% automation coverage by successfully testing and deploying new scripts by week 12. This requires developing and implementing a detailed automation script plan, deploying the tested scripts by the end of the 12th week, and running comprehensive tests on the new automation scripts.
Successfully reaching these targets will not only reduce manual testing effort, but also improve accuracy, and speed up the testing process by enabling tests to run unattended on any scheduled time.

Make these OKRs fit your team
Treat this template as a starting point. Keep the outcomes that match your priorities, adjust the targets and deadlines to reflect your baseline, and remove anything your team cannot influence directly.
Adapt the template or create a plan with AI
You can copy this example into Tability and refine it with your team. If you would rather start from your own context, use embedded AI Mode: describe what your team needs to achieve in a simple prompt and Tability will automatically create a structured OKR plan with objectives, measurable outcomes, and initiatives.
Before publishing, review the AI-generated plan with the people responsible for delivering it:
- Replace generic outcomes with measures your team can update consistently
- Set ambitious but credible targets using current performance as the baseline
- Assign an owner to every outcome and agree on what success looks like
- Remove duplicate or activity-based key results that do not prove meaningful progress
The best OKR platform for AI-bullish teams
Tability brings AI into the goal-setting and execution workflow instead of treating it as a separate writing assistant.
- Fully agentic: use an OKR agent to review plans, suggest improvements, and monitor execution
- Embedded AI Mode: create and refine goals without leaving the planning workflow
- MCP server: talk to your OKRs from Claude, ChatGPT, and other MCP-compatible LLM clients
You have a plan. Now what?
Publishing the plan is the beginning of the work. Tability gives teams a simple weekly rhythm for updating outcomes, discussing confidence, and acting on problems while there is still time to change the result.
- Track progress: collect focused weekly check-ins and sync updates from tools such as Jira, ClickUp, Linear, and Asana
- Detect problems early: use confidence, status, and agent monitoring to surface stalled or at-risk outcomes before the end of the quarter
- Communicate clearly: share dashboards and reports that explain what changed, where help is needed, and what happens next
