Xray provides powerful capabilities for analysis of test results and coverage on a per environment basis, allowing users to easily understand how tests and requirements are on specific target environments.
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.
Features and Limitations
The current integration allows you to:
- visualize and manage Test Plans and Test Executions planning dates (begin & end date) in the Timeline page;
- 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).
Installation
In order to use the new extenders that Xray provides, you need to:
- Install Xray version 3.2.0 or above;
- Install Apwide Test Environment Manager version 6.2.0 or above;
- Install Apwide Xray-Integration version 1.2.4 or above;
