Jira Data Center migration Project

Question

For Our Jira Data Center migration Project, I would like to know if you can provide me with a Test plan/ test Script that we can create when our Users are Testing in the Sandbox instance and then in Production for each of their Projects/ Dashboards to make sure all the Data got migrated over without any issues.

Thanks!

Hi Ruchi, and welcome to the community!

I don't have any test plans our scripts, but I can tell you that the only (minor) issues that we had with our migration were plugin related. Specifically with plugins that had to update to a new version. Other than that there were exactly zero issues.
