Jira workflow is a set of activities performed to track and transition of an issue during the lifecycle of an issue where transition represents the link between the two statuses when an issue moves from one status to another status, and status determines the impact of the work on an issue filed by the tester.
The following are the phases that occur in a workflow :
* TODO
* In Progress
* Done
The Jira workflow is known as defect lifecycle or bug lifecycle. The bug lifecycle consists of the following phases:
Open issue : When the issue is created by the tester, then the issue is assigned to the software developer, and they start working on it.
In Progress : This is the phase where the software developers start working on the issue.
Resolved issue : When the issue is resolved by the software developer and waiting for the verification by the software tester. If the verification is successful, then the issue is closed; otherwise, the issue gets reopened.
Reopened issue : If the verification is unsuccessful, then the issue is reopened and assigned to the software developer.
Close issue : If the verification of the fixed bug is successful, then the issue is closed by the tester.
