In test sets test cases are organized in a flat structure. Test sets are created so that management of test cases is a bit easier. If there is a large number of test cases involved in a project, grouping in test sets helps in categorization of testing for example create test sets for logging functionality. Test sets also makes searching the test cases easier.

Then these test cases are run with the test data provided and final results are matched to see if the functionality being tested is working fine.

Test management is not provided with normal jira set-up for a scrum project. Therefore, we need to install a plugin for test management. We Can use Xray Plugin for test creation, execution, management and monitoring.

See How to Install and Configure Jira Plugin.

Once Xray is installed you can create test cases as jira issue type after clicking the Create Button on Top of the Screen.

Then Select Issue Type as Test

In the Create Issue Panel fill In the necessary details and hit the Create button on the panel.

Release Notes represent all the hard work done for a release. They update all the stakeholders on what to expect next that is it guides us through the Improvements, Updates and What is Fixed. The stakeholders can grasp the content of the release notes very easily if the release notes are crisp, accurate and readable. If your release notes are a mess or not presentable then no one will be willing to read them which can have situations created like communication gaps or misconceptions about the release.

If you are using Jira for your project management, then you can be relaxed as there is a Jira App that can do the job for you anytime and every-time as per your processes. Release Notes can be created automatically by a Jira App called Automated Release Notes and is created by Amoeboids Technologies an Atlassian Platinum Marketplace Partner.

Automated Release Notes App solves two problems with respect to release notes:

  • Structuring of the Release Notes – that is what should be the content and the format of the release notes.
