Has any one worked with Jira in a way that Selenium/Webdriver scripts can be run from Jira itself. Using some other plugins. Please advice.
If thisisnot possible, can we integrate and run the scripts from any other Test Management tool.
We are trying to find out to integrate Selenium scripts into some Test management tool (which should be either free or very low cast).

These are Java files.

Thanks,

Then you should ideally be searching for java and jira integration. Selenium/Webdriver has got nothing to do with this. I think you are better off posting this query on a jira forum.

Some Java test runners that are used for tests that use Selenium (frameworks in which tests are developed):

   TestNG
   JUnit
   Cucumber

These run suites of tests. They don't resemble Jira from what little I know about Jira.

Huh?!?? Jira, from Atlassian, is a Issue and Project Tracking application. It is not a Test Management tool. 

I have been using Jira, on and off, for years. I thought that maybe it has changed and now supports test management. Or maybe Atlassian has a Test Management tool which integrates with Jira. So I went to the Atlassian website. When I look at the Jira page there is nothing about it being Test Management software. There are plugins for integrating other Test Management software with Jira but even those seem to be for gathering metrics on testing and not necessarily launching and and recording Selenium tests.

Personally, I have obtained a JUnit plugin for Confluence (not Jira). It was in their Advanced Macro package. {junitreport} could be added to a Confluence page. It would display the JUnit test results for JUnit XML files dropped in the specified directory. I would write my test framework to use JUnit and copy the results to a directory which Confluence could then monitor. After each test run the Confluence page would update to show the current and all previous test results. I then made sure the test suites and method names made it easy to track which tests related to which requirements/testcases.

BillR's recommendation of TestNG or JUnit would work well for generating test result XML files. Something like cucumber would be a BDD (Behaviour Driven Development) test tool. I'm not so sure it would integrate with Atlassian tools. I have never used BDD tools with things like Jira or Confluence.

If you a stuck on integrating Jira with something I would recommend going to the Atlassian website and searching the marketplace for plugins.

We use Jira to store BDD scenarios below our stories, we've integrated JBehave so that it loads the scenarios programatically from Jira at runtime meaning the latest test gets run all the time. We use TestNg as our running framework.

Hi,
We use Bamboo integration with JIRA for running test automation after check-ins.

Thanks for all those who has helped!

I came across to a tool/plugin suite at - Zagile/Wikidsmart - which integrations SElenium scripts running from Jira.
As per this site and demo, we can RUN scripts from Jira.
Also the run results will come back to Jira.

We will try to research whether this makes a test management (sort of) tool.
So we can:
1. Attache the selenium scripts to Jira
2. Run them
3. Results will be sent back to Jira.

Any other suggestions are of great help!

you can try with confluence plugin from http://www.greenpeppersoftware.com/
Tried it as proof of a concept in the company.
Worked ok, although (like everything) had its pros and cons.
In the end in the in the team we used something else though.
