External Tool Integration with Jira - New UI

Jira, a well-known bug-tracking, issue-tracking, and project-management tool, can be integrated with Opkey. It enables automatic bug logging for failed test executions and updating existing bugs in specific projects.  

Let’s see how to achieve that in Opkey. 

Click on the Tools icon on the right side of the Opkey tool. 

Scroll down and Select External Tool integration from the options. 

On the pop-up window, check the checkbox of ‘Use for Test Management’ corresponding to the Jira tool.  

Click on the ‘Configure’ icon and save it with the Save icon.  

After entering the Jira credentials in the pop-up window, click on the "Login" button. 

Check the checkbox of the required project and then click on the  Configure Workflow Icon.  

On the next window, click on the ‘+’ icon to add a new Workflow.  

Fill in the conditions of the Given execution status, Issue Type, Issue Status, and Change Status, and click on the Back button. Click on the Save button. 

The workflow gets saved.  

On your Jira-integrated project in Opkey, please search for the test case and right-click on it. Then, apply Jira mapping changes to the test case to successfully map with the Jira tool. When you execute the test case, the failed notification will be logged in Jira. 

The bugs will be logged into Jira.  

Jira on Premise

For On-premises Jira, users can activate the utility by entering Opkey domain details. Upon a successful connection, they can proceed to connect and run tests. 

The utility supports one user connected to a single domain at a time. To switch to a different environment, users must log out of the current domain and log in to the new one.  

Current users who wish to use the utility can simply enable it by selecting the "Use Utility" option within the Jira window and proceed.
