In this chapter, we learned about the creation and execution of test cycles using Jira plugins. Test cycles in the test execution phase can be created with details such as start and end dates, assigned testers, build numbers, and so on. Test cycles can be modified to add and remove test cases from the current project before starting a test cycle. Test cases can also be reused from previous releases as part of the current release.
In the next chapter, we will discuss the importance of defect management and see how Jira helps us to track and manage defects effectively.
