Scenarios for JIRA Cloud

Extends Atlassian JIRA Cloud by including gherkin scenarios from a github or bitbucket repository into the issue view.

Installation

  • Install from the Atlassian Marketplace
  • Setup your project:
    • Go to the administration of your project and open "scenarios integration".
    • Enter the data of the source repositry your gherking (.feature) files are kept in.
    • Make sure to use an application password (bitbucket) or personal security token for security reasons. Project Settings
  • Enable the custom fields "scenario file" and "scenario revision" for your Story issue type (or whatever issue type you're using for the scenarios).
    • If your not and experienced JIRA Administrator you can use the "Where is my field?" functionality of JIRA:
    • Open the issue you want to display the scenario on.
    • Click the "Admin" button in the toolbar and select "Where is my field?"
    • Type "Scenario File" Where is my field
    • The dialog will show you where you need to add the field to (refer to the Atlassian JIRA documentation for an explanation).
    • Click "go to 'Task Management Edit/View Issue Screen' Screen configuration settings"
    • Add the "Scenario file" and "Scenario revision" field to the screen Configure Screen

Usage

  • Edit an issue and fill the "Scenario file" and "Scenario revision":
    • file: Relative filename of the your .feature file inside your source repository (eg tests/features/my-feature.feature)
    • revision: git branch or commit id (sha). If you're not sure about it, then use master (usually the default branch in the repository)
    • Edit Issue
  • See your scenario inside your issue: View Scenario

Security

  • this addon reads issue details from Jira
  • this addon stores entity properties on the issue:
    • a flag whether the scenario fields are set
  • this addon stores entity properties on the project:
    • bitbucket/github repository identification (type, owner, name/slug)
    • bitbucket/github account (user/password). The password is encrypted with a key that is stored in the database of the addon.

The JIRA instance never has access to your bitbucket app password or github token. The same goes for the client (browser) - except when they configure a new password (only the one they have typed in the field).

For Developers

This addon may serve as an example for Atlassian Connect plugins.

It uses the following techniques:

  • node.js express based server (atlassian-connect-express)
  • embedding a webpanel (ly-issue-scenarios) into the view issue screen: atlassian-connect.json
  • adding a settings screen (projectconfig-panel) to the project settings: atlassian-connect.json
  • reacting to updates to an issue via a webhook: issue-updated.js and atlassian-connect.json
  • adding custom fields to the JIRA instance: atlassian-connect.json
  • using the JIRA REST API from our server: jira-connector.js
  • using the JIRA REST API from the webbrowser: getProjectProperty in js/project-config.js
  • using the bitbucket REST API from the server: bitbucket-connector.js / github REST API github-connector.js
  • calling our server from the browser
    • server part: encrypt in routes/project-config.js
    • client part:
      • setProjectEntityPropertyEncrypted in js/project-config.js
      • jwt in page-context.js and layout.hbs (meta tag)
  • storing settings in JIRA as entity properties
    • server part (reading): loadSettings in jira-connector.js
    • client part (reading and writing): js/project-config.js
  • storing sensitive data: see the handling of the password entity property (above)
    • server generates unique encryption key per tenant and stores it in its database
    • the encrypted passwords are stored as entity properties in JIRA
    • they can only be decrypted by the server and not in the browser
  • deployment using docker: Dockerfile

Development

To develop and test with this plugin on you local macheinge:

  • Sign-up for an development cloud instance
  • Copy credentials.json.sample to credentials.json and add your credentials from the previous step
  • Start the server using npm start
  • It'll add the plugin to your developement JIRA instance. If it does not you can manually add it in the plugin manager using the ngrok url shown at the startup (i.e. Local tunnel established at https://fb33e879.ngrok.io/)
