JIRA
Jira is project management tool that well integrate with KnowHOW application and provides user a seamless experience of managing and understanding the flow of work being done in current and past project iteration/sprints.
Based on the default setting of KnowHOW, all of the required fields will be populated. If a user wants to change the default setting, below are some key points to be considered.
SCRUM Dashboard Filters operates on the basis of Sprint and on KPIs, last 5 sprints data are shown.
...
Iteration Board KPI’s
Iteration board is configured to seek data from different Scrum projects. Based on selected projects and sprint, Iteration KPI’s shall populate with corresponding data points.
Points To Be Remember-
Only Scrum projects are supported.
The selected project needs to have at least one sprint available for the KPI’s to show up.
Any user other than Superadmin shall have access to a Scrum project for data to be displayed on Iteration board.
Any update on Iteration board shall be followed by running Jira processor from Misc. Settings, subject to availability of new information/data. To know more about Jira processor, click here.
KPI’s Based on Defects
Defects should be linked to Stories. defects which are not linked with stories will not be considered for these KPI data calculation.
For DSR, the defect should have identifier for discovered on production.
All defects should be linked with a story, even if the story is part of the previous Sprint which has been closed.
Defect status should be reflected via the appropriate stage in the workflow, rather than using comments or using another status.
Resolved defects should be reflected via their status as done/closed.
Rejected defects should be reflected via their status as canceled or resolution as configured in KnowHOW.
Similarly, it should be followed for other stages in the defect life cycle like Open, In Progress, In Development, Ready for QA, etc.
RCA drop-down field should be added in the Defect issue type. RCA values drive the info for RCA KPI.
Any Defect/Story that is being considered to work upon in a particular sprint, shall be tagged to same.
KPI’s Based on Test Cases
All Test cases should be linked with a Story (to get In Sprint Automation Percentage value).
if custom fields are used to identify regression and in-sprint test cases, check the custom fields related to it on the setting screen of KnowHOW.
Regression KPI can either be set up by Label or Customfield and is not dependent on Sprint.
Only those Test Cases which are to be automated will be considered for calculation and check the corresponding setting.
Test Execution Percentage and Capacity to be updated manually from the settings > upload.

Build Tools--
KnowHOW support a variety of build tools like Jenkins, BAMBOO and Azure Pipelines. These tools are used for different purposes like creating build or deployment pipeline that make different SCRUM/KANBAN projects operation more viable.
KnowHOW, understanding the vast utilities of these applications, have dedicated KPI’s that ensure user keep track of different Build and Deployment activities.
To know the different SCRUM and KANBAN KPI’s that support these build tools, Click Here.
