X-Ray is a test management add-on in Jira and it allows us to do all testing-related activities in Jira and stay visible to the team. It indexes tests in real-time, so you run tests with full control of the entire process. That way, you get total coverage, catch problems fast, and keep releasing quality software with confidence.
Basic Objectives
Learn where tests were correct or wrong using traceability reports
Use of orchestration and integration with frameworks (Cucumber and JIRA)
Link or requirements to test cases
