Teams using best-of-breed tools need visibility and access to cross-functional data within their own tools without relying on manual and tedious data transfers. When product managers, verification engineers, and QA teams collaborate effectively by automating data synchronization, it empowers them to enhance quality and product delivery. The integration of Verisium Manager (Formerly known as Cadence vManager) with Jira using OpsHub Integration Manager (OIM) breaks information silos between teams and enables comprehensive functional verification with enhanced traceability and planning, thereby minimizing manual intervention and errors.
OIM integrates Verisium Manager and Jira bidirectionally, preserving all historical and current data for each user in their preferred system in real time. The product team starts by adding requirements in Jira, which is being used by the USB Flash Drives team. The product team, or in this case, the USB team, adds a feature requirement, provides a summary and description, and saves it. The systems architect then creates a couple of verification requirements under the same feature requirement. Under the first verification requirement, the systems architect adds a summary, description, links it to the feature requirement, and saves it. These are the verifications that the systems architect wants the verification team to perform. The systems architect goes ahead and adds the second verification requirement, gives it a name and description, similarly links it to the feature requirement, and saves it.
OpsHub Integration Manager runs in the background, checking for created or updated requirements and integrating them into Verisium Manager. In Jira, the feature requirement is linked to both verification requirements. Switching to Verisium Manager, the verification team resyncs to view the latest requirements. In Verisium Manager, the feature requirement shows the actual requirement to be completed along with both verification requirements. The verification team then adds two test cases, one under each verification requirement, and begins working on both by adding planned test cases.
The USB team’s requirement is to avoid visibility until the planned tests are complete. Therefore, this demo will show integrations of the final results at the requirements level, although it is also possible to integrate planned tests from Verisium Manager to Jira if required. The verification team starts executing tests and attaches test results to all the tests. Before proceeding, they map some regression sessions to these tests. Once the sessions are mapped with the planned tests, the team clicks on Grade Analysis, which persists the verification results in the planned tests so they can be synchronized back to Jira. After completing the grade analysis, the verification team resyncs to get the results.
In Jira, all the coverage and test data are visible. The USB team refreshes the page to find the test results. They discover that one verification requirement reflects only 33% coverage, while the overall feature requirement reflects 66%. Consequently, the USB team changes the status to “Requires Reverification.” This status change syncs back to Verisium Manager, alerting the verification team that additional tests need to be added. In Verisium Manager, the status of the parent requirement reflects “Requires Reverification,” prompting the verification team to add more tests in regression and attach the recent results. The team runs grade analysis again and resyncs to view the latest results.
Now, 100% coverage is achieved. These updated results sync back to Jira. The USB team refreshes the page to view the updated results, reflecting 100% coverage with zero failed runs and all past runs included. The USB team changes the status of the feature and verification requirements to “Done,” marking the closure of the process. This status change syncs back to Verisium Manager, alerting the verification team that all work and required testing are completed for these requirements. Finally, in Verisium Manager, the verification team resyncs to view the updated status, confirming that the requirements are successfully marked as “Done.”
This demo showcased how integrating Verisium Manager with other tools allows teams to collaborate seamlessly within their own environments, ensuring everyone has access to the latest requirements and results. This completes the demo. Thanks for watching. Integrating Verisium Manager with other tools using OIM enables transparent and robust verification, helping teams gain cross-system visibility and insights.
