Summary


In this chapter, we learned about the DevOps pipeline and execution using Jira plugins. We learned how the DevOps pipeline can be leveraged in a software development project to become truly agile and deliver continuously, while improving in making deliveries. We configured our Test Management plugins for Jira to integrate with Jenkins as our CI/CD tool. We saw a simple hands-on example of working in the DevOps pipeline for automating test case management.

Here comes the end of our long journey. I hope you enjoyed reading this book!
