Enabling Connections for Design, Source Control, and Continuous Integration

The power of Atlassian’s Open DevOps toolchain is the ability to integrate with many external third-party applications. While an organization may use Atlassian as the DevOps backbone, there may be other preferred applications for design, source control, or continuous integration (CI). For example, although Atlassian allows for easy connection to Bitbucket for source control and CI, we may want to connect to our existing tools, such as GitHub and GitLab for source control and Jenkins and CircleCI for CI. This chapter will demonstrate how to integrate Jira with these external tools to allow visibility of source control and CI information in Jira.

To accomplish this, we will look at incorporating the following recipes:

• Connecting Jira to design tools
• Connecting Jira to source control using a native integration
• Connecting Jira to source control using a universal integration
