test plugin

[Deleted user]

Hi, I want to test a plugin which enables 2FA.
I'm specially interested in testing 2FA with SSO across all the atlassian applications (JIRA, Bamboo, Confluence, Bitbucket).

What is the recommended way of testing something like this locally?

This is the plugin I want to test
https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1217902/2fa-for-crowd-secure-authentication?hosting=server&tab=overview

Later I would also like to incorporate other apps to this SSO test (like SonarQube for example).

The recommended approach is to create an isolated local lab using Docker/VMs rather than testing this on the existing Atlassian environment.

Crowd + the 2FA plugin → test 2FA independently.
Add Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket and Bamboo → configure Crowd SSO and verify that logging into one application authenticates you to the others.
Test scenarios such as wrong OTP, expired OTP, logout, disabled users, and SSO session expiry.
Later, add SonarQube and potentially an IdP such as Keycloak/Entra ID to test a broader SAML/OIDC SSO setup.
The key is to build it incrementally so you can identify whether an issue is caused by 2FA, Crowd SSO, or an individual application integration
