However, Xray is somehow  limited on the management capabilites of Test Environments; they are created similar to labels and they're available to all your Jira projects. You may require more advanced management capabilities for your Test Environments, such as the ability of defining and manage them on a per-project basis. Fortunately, there is Apwide Test Environment Manager which complements Xray built-in features, allowing you to fully manage Test Environments, their availability amongst other.

Brief overview of Apwide's Features

Apwide Test Environment Manager is a complete Test Environments management solution.

Some of its features include:

  • ability to manage Test Environments
    • create/edit/remove
    • manage the status of a Test Environment
  • Environment Roles (i.e. permissions per team)
  • track the historical status changes (e.g. the availability) of a Test Environment
  • track the deployed versions through time on a Test Environment 
  • plan custom events on Test Environments using the Timeline
  •  

Features and Limitations

The current integration with Xray allows you to:

  • visualize and manage Test Executions planning dates (begin & end date) in the Timeline page; it's possible also to manage Test Plans, as long as you also assign Test Environments to them;
  • use (exclusively or complementarly) the Test Environments managed by Apwide Test Environment Manager whenever creating Test Executions;
  • assess information related with Test Environments, such as its current status, right in the screens where Test Environments may be present (e.g. reports, Test Execution issue screen).
