The status of a requirement tells you information about its current state, from a quality perspective. Is it covered with test cases? If so, has it been validated successfully? In which version? In Xray, for a given requirement, considering the default settings, its coverage status may be:

Setting Xray information on Agile Board
A typical concern with Agile boards is having them as clear and as "non-polluted" as possible, so you can focus on what's important.
Some relevant and high-level information may be obtained from specific custom fields associated with requirements, or (Sub) Test Executions, or Test Plans. These fields may be included in the board cards.
Note that you are limited on the number of fields (3) you're able to include in each card on the board.
Next, you may find some possible scenarios for integrating testing into your Agile boards, although you're free to adapt each one to your needs.

As a suggestion, you may also add the Test Environments custom field. It may be useful to have different Sub-Test Executions to test the requirement in different environments.
Quick view of Executions for Requirements from Agile Board
Creating a Sub-Test Execution from the Requirement Issue will let you track related executions on the Agile Board, so you will see all work that needs to be done to “finish” a requirement, either by developers or testers.
You can have a quick view of all test executions of a requirement, directly from the Jira Agile board, as long as the executions are created as Sub-Test Execution issues.
Test Plans as a way to consolidate test results
You may create one or more Test Plans and associate them with a given Sprint.
By including the Test Plan Status custom field, you are able to see right away the overall progress of your Test Plans.
You may also include the Test Execution Status custom field in your cards; thus, Sub-Test Executions progress may be promptly visualized.
Requirement Status may also be included in the card configuration, allowing you to assess the coverage status of the requirements present on the board.
