Cucumber is a framework for behavior-driven development (BDD), where the test specification is done in the natural language, while the implementation of each specification's phrase phase (i.e., step) is done in code (e.g., Java, Ruby or some other language).

Xray provides the tool to create the specification inside Jira, although the implementation code itself is outside of Xray's scope.  

One key thing to mention note is that the current version of Xray only allows you to manage the Cucumber scenarios in Jira/Xray; thus, thus Jira will be used as the master of information.

Our recommendation is to manage it in Jira and always edit the Cucumber Scenarios/Scenario Outlines/Backgrounds there or else ; otherwise, it will be hard to setupset up.
