SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires smartbear-mcp, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the traceability between Jira and Zephyr, simplifying the process of linking test cases and managing test coverage.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Jira-Zephyr Traceability: Fetches story AC and components, detects existing TC links, links new Zephyr TCs back to Jira, and applies has-zephyr-tests labels.
  • Use Case: After creating Zephyr test cases that need linking, when fetching a Jira story's details for test generation, or when auditing and cleaning up stale TC links.

Quick Start

Use the quality-engineering-jira-integration skill to link the Zephyr test case 'PROJ-T123' to the Jira issue 'TICK-123'.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate Jira-Zephyr traceability for test case linking?

Automating Jira-Zephyr traceability involves fetching story acceptance criteria, detecting existing test case links, and linking Zephyr test cases back to Jira issues. This skill uses the SmartBear MCP tool to automatically apply has-zephyr-tests labels and manage test coverage.

What is the best way to audit and clean up stale test case links between Jira and Zephyr?

Auditing stale test case links is handled by fetching Jira story details and detecting existing Zephyr test case connections. You can use this automation to identify outdated links, ensuring your Jira issues reflect accurate test coverage and traceability.

Do I need API access to Jira and Zephyr to automate test case linking?

Yes, you need API access to both Jira and Zephyr to automate test case linking. The integration requires this connectivity to fetch story components, link Zephyr test cases, and update Jira issues with the appropriate test coverage labels.

How does SmartBear MCP work with Jira issues for test coverage management?

SmartBear MCP works with Jira issues by functioning as the underlying tool to link Zephyr test cases. It retrieves acceptance criteria and components, automates the connection between test cases and stories, and applies labels to indicate active test coverage.

Can I fetch Jira story details for automated test generation and traceability?

Yes, you can fetch Jira story details like acceptance criteria and components for automated test generation and traceability. The skill retrieves these details to establish Zephyr test case links and apply has-zephyr-tests labels for coverage tracking.
