What is JIRA?




We have been hearing about JIRA a lot these day. Aren’t we? So, let us discuss some key pointers on JIRA today.

JIRA is a project management tool used for issue tracking, bug tracking and project management purposes.

There are projects in JIRA. A project is simply a collection of issues. An issue represents something that needs to be worked on.
Example:

ABC_FirstProjectName/MNL-101 ---à The key uniquely identifies the issue.
An example issue in so and so part of the app --à The summary tells you what the issue is about.

Assignee: Mukta Sharma
The assignee is the person currently working on the issue.

Status: In Progress
The status indicates where the issue currently is in its workflow.

When we hear about Issues, it is not only limited to bugs. It could be anything. It could be any of the following:
Sub-task
Technical Task
Bug
Epic
Improvement
New Feature
Story
Task

You can create a standard project in JIRA and an Agile_Scrum based project as well.  Standard project in JIRA can have all the above listed issues where Agile_Scrum based project can have the following:
Epic
Story
Technical Task
Bug
Improvement

You can customize the issues as per the project requirement. JIRA gives you flexibility to do that.

Please feel free to give your inputs. Thank you for reading!
