End to End - JIRA Integration
End-to-End Test Management with Contigree and JIRA Integration
Streamline your testing lifecycle by integrating Contigree with JIRA. This guide walks you through the full process—from requirement intake and automated test case generation, to execution, traceability, and defect tracking. Use this workflow to eliminate manual test design efforts, enhance traceability, and get real-time visibility into your QA activities.
Workflow Overview
You’ll learn how to:
Link requirements from JIRA to Contigree for automatic test generation
Trace and filter test cases by JIRA tickets
Execute tests from either tool
Track defects and coverage through dashboards
Generate tests directly from product walkthrough videos
Let’s get started!
Linking JIRA Requirements and Generating Test Cases
Start by working with your existing JIRA tickets and transform them into actionable test cases within Contigree.
Open your JIRA account and select the desired Sprint from your backlog. Identify the user story or ticket you want to test.
Click on the user story to open its details in a new tab.
Click the App Actions icon and choose the ContextQA Panel.
In the ContextQA panel, paste your web application’s URL and confirm.
Click Create Test Case. Contigree will now generate test cases based on your user story.
Open the Contigree portal and refresh the page. You’ll see the new test cases linked to your JIRA ticket.
Use the Labels option in Contigree to filter and trace test cases by their associated JIRA ticket numbers.
In JIRA, refresh your user story page. The linked test cases will now appear in the panel, with clear labeling showing their Contigree origin and ticket association.
You’ve now automatically generated and linked test cases—no manual effort required!
Executing and Tracing Test Cases
Run your test cases from either JIRA or Contigree and monitor their execution status.
In JIRA, select the relevant test case and click Execute to start the test run.
Alternatively, run test cases from within Contigree by selecting your test cases and hitting Run.
Wait for the execution to complete. A pop-up will confirm the result.
Click Back to Test Case to review the execution summary.
Return to your JIRA ticket and refresh the page. The latest execution status displays right within JIRA, so you always know the current state of your tests.
You now have seamless execution and live traceability between your requirements and tests.
Defect Tracking: Reporting Bugs Directly from Tests
Report defects instantly from your test executions to improve feedback loops.
During or after test execution, click the JIRA option to jump to your JIRA account.
Select your project and set the issue type to Bug.
Save. A new JIRA ticket is created and linked.
Follow the generated link to view the bug ticket in JIRA, complete with all relevant information.
Monitor traceability by viewing the list of all tickets and defects reported across your Sprints.
Quality Dashboard: Real-Time Coverage and Bug Insights
Track your QA metrics and insights in one place.
Access the Contigree Dashboard for a comprehensive view of your testing progress.
See the total number of tickets, automated tests, and reported bugs.
Track which test cases are automated and view bug creation statistics.

Maintain end-to-end visibility into requirement coverage, test status, and quality risks across your projects.
Generating Test Cases from Product Videos
Create test cases directly from product walkthrough videos with Contigree’s video upload feature.
Log in to the Contigree platform.
Click the Plus icon and select Import File.
Choose Import Requirement, select your video file, and upload it.
Click Create Test Case to start the automatic test generation. Allow 15–20 minutes for processing.
Once processing is complete, review the generated test cases:
Positive, negative, and edge test cases are tagged and listed for your review.

Click any test case to view details, check prerequisites, and adjust if necessary.
Run the test directly, skipping prerequisites if desired. Execution begins automatically.
Track execution status and results from your dashboard. Generated cases help automate test design even from high-level walk-throughs.
Conclusion
By integrating Contigree with JIRA, your QA team:
Automates test design from requirements and videos
Links and executes tests directly from both platforms
Instantly tracks coverage, progress, and defects
Gains real-time QA insights with powerful dashboards
