General Introduction
This page is meant to provide a general overview of how the OLE and OLETS Jira Projects are used in the OLE QA Testing process. Wherever possible, this page will include links to both other pages in this wiki and external resources for more detailed information on a given subject.

Linking in Jira
Jira is able to link issues both within the same project and across different projects. The link referred to here is essentially a normal Internet hyperlink, with an added custom field, "link type," to explain the logical relationship between the linked issues. Any time a Jira issue ID is entered into a text field or a comment on a Jira issue, a link will automatically be generated.
Generally only two link types are used in the OLE testing process: the "Parent Jira" link and the "Tests/Tested By" link, explained below in more detail.
Parent Jira
The link used between Stories and Test Cases is the "Parent Jira" link. This is a one-way link declaring that the Story is the parent to the Test Case. The link will only be shown on the Test Case, not the Story. One Story may be the parent to many Test Cases, but a Test Case will not have more than one parent.
The Parent Jira link is declared when the OLE Test Case is written, or while it is open for editing. For more information on how to declare a Parent Jira link on an OLE Test Case, please refer to the wiki page "Creating Test Case Content."

Tests/Tested By
The link type used between Tasks (or Bug/Defects) and Test Cases is the "Tests/Tested By" link. This is a two-way link, declaring that the Test Case tests the Task. On the OLE Jira project, the Task will show a "Tested By" link to the Test Case, and on the OLETS Jira project, the Test Case will show a "Tests" link to the Task. This two-way link is automatically generated on both issues when it is created on one, so there is no need to duplicate the link on the Task if it has been declared on the Test Case. Generally, one Test Case will test one Task or Bug/Defect.
The "Tests/Tested By" link is usually declared after a Test Case has been written, and cannot be added while the Test Case is open for editing. For more on the relationship between Tasks and Test Cases, please refer to the wiki page "Creating Test Case Content." For specific instructions on how to create a link of this type, please refer to the "Linking Tasks" section of the "Creating Test Case Content" page.
