How to summarize X-Ray test results in Confluence

[PeterGraebner]

We got now X-Ray integrated in Jira and we would like to create an overview page in Confluence.

I found the same question, but unfortunately the links given in the answer from X-Ray team don't work anymore.

Hi @PeterGraebner ,

you could use JIRA Issues builtin macro in order to report an overview about tests status in a confluence page 

Server Datacenter : https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/jira-issues-macro-139380.html

Cloud : https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-jira-issues-macro/

Hope this helps,

Fabio

If you're using Xray in Jira server/dc, you can use macros; no need to install anything else! See more details here along with some examples.

If you're using Xray in Jira cloud, then you need to use another app to provide testing reports in Confluence. There's a app for Confluence named Xray Reports for Confluence that serves exactly that purpose, as that is not possible out-of-the-box.

This app allows you to embed testing reports, based on data from Xray Test Management, directly into your pages in Confluence. It provides several macros tailored for this, that allow you, for example, to track overall test coverage.

To get it working, you'll need to follow these steps, which require installing not just this app on Confluence but also a "Connector" app in your Jira instance:

1. install the Xray Reports Connector for Jira app on your Jira cloud instance
2. install the Xray Reports app in your Confluence cloud instance
3. configure the Xray API client id and client secret on the settings of the Xray Reports for Confluence app; you need to obtain the client id and client secret from your Xray API Key settings, in your Jira cloud instance
