Once enabled, you can create new or link an existing Jira issue directly from test execution details in Currents. You can also explore previously created or linked issues that are linked to the current test.

Browse Linked Jira Issues

1. Open any test execution details in Currents

2. Look for the Jira icon (only visible when integration is enabled). If there existing (previously linked) Jira Issues related to the test, you will see a counter next to Jira icon.

• The integration creates one-way links from Currents to Jira

• Deleting or closing Jira Issue do not remove those issues in Currents - you will need to do that manually
