Introduction
If your organization tracks and manages software development projects in Jira, you can connect DTP to your Jira system in the administration page. Connecting to Jira enables you to create a Jira issue from the Violations Explorer and Test Explorer views.
You can associate multiple projects in DTP with a project in Jira, but you cannot associate the same DTP project with more than one Jira project.
Prerequisites
This feature has been tested with Jira Project Management Software v8.0.2#800010. The feature may not function as expected on other versions of Jira.
General Configuration
- Choose Report Center Settings from the settings (gear icon) drop-down menu.
- Choose External Application [Beta] from the Administration sidebar and enable the Enabled option.
- Enter a name for the server in the Name field.
- Enter the URL of your Jira system in the Application URL field.
- Enter a URL for rendering links to your Jira system from DTP in the Display URL field.
- Enter login credentials in the Username and Password field. The login must have sufficient privileges to create Jira issues in the projects specified in the Project Associations section.
- Click Test Connection to verify your settings and click Save.
Project Associations
- Click Create Project Association and choose a project from the DTP Project drop-down menu in the overlay.
- Enter the name of a Jira project in the JIRA Project field and click Create to save the association.
Click the trash icon to remove a project association. Removing the project association does not remove links. If a new association is created, existing links between violations and Jira issues will be reactivated.
