Why is Test Management so important?
Software is everywhere, including in critical systems from health, finance, transports, space, IoT, just to name a few…

2. Why JIRA for Quality Assurance?
Xray for JIRA

Using JIRA for software development
Requirements
Defects

… there was Excel… or even other “legacy Test Management tools” J
In the ”dark ages”….

Built-in features
• Focus on teams
• Collaboration / Comments
• Agile project management & waterfall
• Workflow control
• Customizable and adaptable
• Searching
• Assignment
• Track changes
• Linking between issues
• Importing issues from CSV
And more, through thousands of add-ons…
Welcome to “modern ages” with JIRA

What is missing?
1. Test related artifacts (tests, executions, plans)
2. Visibility of testing results and progress in Agile boards
3. In-context information about tests for requirements
4. Advanced reporting for generating documents and drill-down on data
JIRA as a Test Management tool

3. Leverage JIRA for testing with Xray
Xray for JIRA

1. Specify Pre-Conditions and Tests and organize them in Test Sets
2. Create one or more Test Plans for a given version
3. Create multiple planned Test Executions (i.e. associated with the Test Plan)
Dedicated JIRA issue types for testing
Specification: Tests and Pre-Conditions
Organization: Test Sets
Planning: Test Plans
Execution: (sub)Test Executions

1. Leverages JIRAs built-in
features
2. Permission control
3. Implementation of Workflows
4. Custom fields
5. Screens customization
6. Assignment, Changes tracking
7. Collaboration
8. And much more…
The benefits of using JIRA issue types

3. i) Project Organization Scenarios
Xray for JIRA

A single project to manage your Requirements and Defects, Test
related issues and also have all your Test Executions.
All for One and One for All

A dedicated project for Test and Test Set issues. Test Executions are
responsibility of other project(s).
Dedicated Test Repository

3. ii) Workflows and Custom Fields
Xray for JIRA

Possible scenarios
• Disable tests for new executions
• Have a status for “deprecated” tests
• Have an initial stage for the specification (e.g.
“draft” or “new”) and then another status
whenever it’s ready to be used
Workflow example for Tests & Pre-Conditions
Manage specification lifecyle

Possible scenarios
• Disallow executions of Tests with workflow
statuses
• Disallow executions with workflow statuses
• For Test Executions in specific status
• In progress Test Execution workflow status
• After the first run
• Resolved Test Execution workflow status
• When all runs are in final status
• Resolution for Resolved Test Execution
Workflow example for Test Executions and Test Plans
Manage execution lifecyle

• Custom fields may be added to any Xray issue type (i.e.Test, Pre-Condition, Test Set, (Sub)Test
Execution, Test Plan)
• Can be used to complement issues with additional information
Custom Fields

3. iii) JQL functions
Xray for JIRA

Querying using JQL functions
testPlanTests(‘CALC-123’)
Test Plan's Tests
Test Plan’s Tests currently in a given status
Test Plan’s Tests currently in a given status, in a given Test Environment
testPlanTests(‘CALC-123’, ’TODO’)
testPlanTests(‘CALC-123’, ’TODO’, ’Android’)
issue in requirements('NOK', 'Calculator', 'V4.0')
Requirement Issues with the provided coverage status
Xray provides an extensive list of JQL functions, so you may obtain what you need.

4. The life of a “tester”
Xray for JIRA

• Composed by a list of steps
• Each Step is defined by:
• Action/Step
• Data
• Expected Result
• Input Attachments
• Support for JIRA Wiki markup
• Importing steps, including from
Excel using copy&paste
Specifying “Manual Tests”

• Cucumber supported natively
• BDD – Specify tests in a business-readable domain-specific language
• Test definition serves as documentation
• Automated test steps may be implemented in Ruby, Java, .Net, etc
• Export specification and execute it during Continuous Integration
Specifying “Automated Cucumber Tests”

Astracts initial steps that must be done or ensured before starting the test.
• Manual or Automated
• Reusable; may be linked to multiple Tests
Complement specifications with “Pre-Conditions”

Flat, with “Test Sets”
Organizing Tests in multiple ways
A issue that represents a list of tests organized by some
logical way. The natural “JIRA way”.
For the “hierarchy/folder mindset”…
Hierarchical (v3.0)

A testing plan for aggregating and consolidate
results from multiple iterations (i.e. Test Executions)
• Tracks a group of tests and their results
independently of the number of executions
• Create planned test cycles (i.e. Test Executions)
for the Test Plan
Planning with “Test Plans”

• Contains a list of tests and their results (i.e. test runs)
• Can be labeled, proritized, assigned to components, etc.
• May be created manually or during Continuous Integration
A “task” for executing a group of tests on a given version of the system.
Executing with “Test Executions”

1. Set Execution Result
2. Create Defect issues
3. Attach Evidences
4. Add comments
5. Check the Execution Activity Log
At the execution screen of a Test Run…

Ok… but how does gets visible in
our requirements?
Xray for JIRA

“Requirements” as they come by default in JIRA
• You may track the implementation through the workflow status but it lacks testing related info
• “Soft-binding” between implementation and expected result

Real status of requirements with in-context information
With Xray:
• Real-time information about the
coverage status of the requirement
for a given version
• Real-time information about the
associated test results, for a given
version
• A ”requirement” may be any issue
type you may have; test coverage
can be made in any issue type

1. Built-in reports
2. JIRA gadgets in JIRA dashboards
3. Agile boards
4. Through other top-notch JIRA add-ons
Multiple ways of reporting, the JIRA way

Shows the requirement traceability, from requirements to defects.
This helps you analyze the requirements and related Tests, Test Runs and
defects, for quickly identifying uncovered or incomplete/faulty requirements.
Built-in reports: Traceability Report

Provides a quick way of evaluating the current (coverage) status of your project's
requirements, so you will be able to see if they are ready to be or not.
JIRA Dasboards: Requirement Coverage Gadgets

Useful, yet lack quality related information.
Standard Agile Boards

Xray gives you visibility of your testing results and its progress.
Enhanced Agile Boards with Xray

Use Xporter to generate fully customizable Word, Excel or PDF files with your testing
reports to give to your management, colleagues or to your customers
(e.g. Test specification, Test Execution progress and respective results, Test Plan details).
Reports as deliverable assets

5. Test Automation
Xray for JIRA

The cost of bugs
Code Complete, Steve McConnell, 2004
• The cost of fixing bugs grows exponentially depending on the phase in which
they are detected
• The fix cost also depends on the stage where bugs are initially introduced
=> Automated testing to the rescue!
Phase in which a Defect is
introduced
Phase in which a Defect is detected

Supported formats
• Xray JSON
• Cucumber
• Behave
• JUnit
• Nunit
• Robot framework
• Calabash
• … more to come
Automation in mind…
Integrating with automated test frameworks

1. Use JIRA for managing the complete lifecycle of your software projects
2. Xray is the perfect tool for Test Management inside JIRA, for both manual and automated testing
3. Xporter complements Xray, enabling advanced reports in Word, Excel, PDF with custom layouts
Deliver faster and better releases with JIRA and Xray
Xray for JIRA empowers test teams to manage and deliver rock solid software solutions
