About the sprint/release timeline

This document explains how you can use the sprint/release timeline's features to plan and manage resources related to Jira directly within TestOps.

Sprint/release timeline

• Connect Jira to TestOps first. Ensure your sprints have a start and end date, otherwise they might not show up in TestOps. (Or connect to another ALM.)

In the Plans section, you can keep track of Jira release and sprint schedules or assign testers to requirements seamlessly from within TestOps.

1. Go to Plans. Your sprints and releases appear in a timeline. The current ongoing sprint is highlighted like in the photo below.
   Note:

   • Use the Today button to hop to the current sprint/release.

   
2. TestOps and Jira sync in real-time, but if there are issues you can refresh by clicking on the Refresh button in the upper right corner, above the timeline.
   
3. Clicking on a release or sprint opens a drawer that shows all its requirements.
   
4. Assign a tester to a requirement by clicking on the dropdown menu labeled Tester and selecting a User.
   
5. Testers can view all requirements assigned to them by using the Filter Tester feature.
6. View your requirements in Jira by clicking on the outbound button in the upper right corner of the requirements list. Doing so takes you to the linked Release within Jira.

View a requirement's details by clicking on it from the requirement list.
