Vendor Payments Take Too Much Time And There Is a Way Out of the Vicious Cycle

While cloning in Jira can be done in just a few clicks, it becomes less straightforward when you have special requirements. What if you need to clone an issue to a different project, clone tasks in bulk, or do this automatically on a schedule? In this article, we explore all these scenarios and provide you with examples and step-by-step instructions.

Many agile teams prefer Jira for managing test cases. Even though it’s not a dedicated tool, it provides a straightforward way to organize the testing process, track progress, and share results with stakeholders. Additionally, it enhances collaboration between QA and development teams.

Using test case templates in Jira allows you to manage this process even more efficiently. These templates save time, promote standardization, and provide a structured foundation for test execution. In this short tutorial, I will show you how to create a Jira test case template and use it with automation to simplify your testing process.

For many of us, even planning a personal trip can be a daunting task. Missing one detail when booking a flight or hotel can lead to a disaster. The challenge becomes even greater when you need to organize a business trip for others, especially for large events where many people travel simultaneously. 

Additionally, business travel often requires multiple approvals and cross-team collaboration. You will need a solution to keep everyone on the same page and easily track every detail. A business travel template for Jira is an ideal way to solve this challenge. 

In this blog post, we share a ready-to-use template and explain how to use it.

Why Atlassian Needed a Modern App Development Platform

Building apps for Jira, Confluence, and other Atlassian products has traditionally been a resource-heavy process. Developers had to configure their own servers, ensure uptime, and pass rigorous security checks to get their apps approved for the Atlassian Marketplace. This setup required both development expertise and operational support, slowing app development and increasing costs.

Atlassian Forge was introduced to eliminate these barriers. It is a modern cloud-based app development platform that allows developers to build secure, serverless apps directly within Atlassian’s infrastructure. Forge simplifies building apps, giving developers more time to focus on functionality, while Atlassian handles hosting, security, and scaling.

This article explains Forge’s core features, key benefits, pricing model, and common use cases. Whether you are a developer considering your first Atlassian app or a team looking to transition from Connect to Forge, this guide will help you decide if Forge is the right solution for your business.

The more you can automate, the more time you will have for the “H” part of HR—humans. In addition to freeing up time, automation brings you many other benefits. It allows you to build clear and transparent processes, create a smooth employee experience, and improve retention rates.

In this blog post, we explain how to set up various types of automation in Jira for HR management purposes.

Agile frameworks like Scrum provide flexibility in structuring workflows, which can sometimes lead to confusion, especially when using project management tools such as Jira.

This is especially true for tasks and story issue types, as both exist at the same hierarchy level, and teams often struggle to determine when to use one over the other.

Although these issue types share the same hierarchy in Jira, they are intended for different purposes. By understanding their roles, teams can better organize their work, improve their planning, and enhance their reporting.

In this article, I’ll explore the purpose of tasks and stories, how they can work together effectively, and best practices for managing them in Jira.

Connecting issues in Jira serves many purposes. For instance, it allows you to track dependencies between tasks, identify blockers, and visualize these blockers in a timeline view. As a result, you can better organize your team’s work, enhance planning, and improve collaboration.

In this blog post, I explain how to link issues in Jira using different methods. You can link issues automatically or manually from a Jira board or issue view. Additionally, we give you useful tips on how to make working with linked issues more convenient and efficient.
