Connect Jira or Azure DevOps and keep them in sync

Import stories and acceptance criteria from Jira or Azure DevOps, turn them into tests, and let results and status flow back, so your tracker and your tests never drift apart.

Your tracker is where work is defined, and your tests are how you prove it works. When those two live apart, they drift: a story changes and the test does not, or a test passes and nobody updates the ticket. AxonQA connects directly to Jira and Azure DevOps so the two stay tied together, with requirements flowing in and test results flowing back out.

Connect once, for the whole team

An admin connects your Jira or Azure DevOps at the organization level, and everyone in the workspace can use that connection. Credentials are stored securely and never exposed to the browser, and the connection is provider-aware, so the same flow works whether your work items live in Jira or in Azure DevOps.

Bring stories in, grounded and ready

Import the stories and acceptance criteria you choose by their key, and Axon turns them into structured test cases that reflect what the work item actually says. Because generation reads the real acceptance criteria rather than a one-line prompt, the cases cover the behavior the story describes, and each one stays linked to the item it came from.

A user story becomes structured test cases you can review and run.

Results and status flow back

The link works in both directions. A test case keeps a reference to its work item, so when tests run, their outcome and status can flow back to the tracker. Anyone reading the ticket sees whether it is covered and whether the coverage is passing, without leaving the tool they already live in.

Stay in sync as things change

Requirements move, and sync keeps up. When a linked story changes in Jira or Azure DevOps, AxonQA can pick up the new wording so your tests are measured against the current definition, not last quarter's. Paired with drift detection, that means a changed acceptance criterion becomes a prompt to update coverage rather than a silent gap. Connect the tracker once, and traceability takes care of itself.
