Two-Way Sync for IBM ETM and Jira Integration

Elevate your software quality and compliance with seamless integration between IBM ETM and Jira.

Companies that trust OpsHub for its powerful, enterprise-scale integration

Why should you integrate IBM ETM and Jira?

Improved Traceability and Test Coverage

The Jira IBM ETM integration provides a clear link between requirements, test cases, and defects. This traceability ensures that all requirements are adequately tested and that defects are resolved effectively.

Comprehensive Defect Management

The centralized view of defects improves visibility, facilitates communication, and accelerates the resolution process.

Enhanced Collaboration and Efficiency

Integrating ETM and Jira fosters better collaboration between development and testing teams. By linking test cases to Jira issues, teams can easily track defects, prioritize fixes, and ensure that issues are addressed promptly.

Common challenges when integrating IBM ETM and Jira

	Scalable Integration	Data Fidelity	Low Maintenance Cost
Script-Based (Build your own sync tool)	Heavily relies on custom scripts which is time-consuming & error-prone to manage at scale.	Heavy scripting is needed to minimize information gaps for each information type i.e. comments, embedded content, data movement, attachments etc.	High implementation & maintenance cost. Needs dedicated tech resource for script maintenance.
Workflow Automation (Similar to script-based, but with GUI)	Relies on drag & drop pre-made triggers and connectors. Needs scripting for custom integration.	Requires sync admin to script for conflict and system recovery management.	High maintenance cost as sync admin is essentially scripting integration in each workflow.
Plugin-Based (Sync add-on installed in end points)	Slows down the system by adding to processing required and consuming same resources as server.	Potential for information gaps in complex integration since plugins generally do not handle complex data.	High to medium maintenance cost because of frequent admin interference due to missed events.
OpsHub Integration Manager (Central sync hub with out-of-box sync capabilities)	Incremental data fetching to avoid system overload. GUI-based sync configurations.	Out-of-box no-code features to ensure predictable sync taking care of conflicts and system down scenarios.	Low maintenance due to self-led & reliable sync capabilities.

The Release manager creates and manages product requirements in Jira.
OpsHub Integration Manager automatically synchronizes requirements from Jira to ETM.
Requirements are mapped to appropriate ETM modules or test plans.
The QA engineer creates test cases in ETM based on the synchronized requirements. These test cases are linked to corresponding requirements for traceability.
OpsHub Integration Manager synchronizes test cases and their linked requirements from ETM back to Jira.
The defects are synced from ETM to Jira as issues with relevant information and are linked to corresponding requirements and test cases.
Developers in Jira fix the defects. Once fixed, the developer updates the defects’ statuses which are synced back to ETM.
The QA engineer re-tests the corresponding test case in ETM to verify the fix.

When it comes to live synchronization, it is something very magical for us because the teams are working on their own ADO team projects and they need to be least worried about whatever updates they make – their epics, features and bugs, they get automatically synced so that management can see the information as a whole organization.

We have recaptured 15-20% of our developer productivity. The developers always have clarity on which items are top priority, and we can give customers real-time status updates on the spot. With OpsHub, everyone is much more relaxed, and we can resolve more issues faster.

We found the technical support from OpsHub to be exceptional as it helped us to solve several problems and optimize how we use the integration. We went from slow and cumbersome, heavy releases spanning years to lower-risk and simplified release cycles spanning months.
