Hey all,
X-Ray is great, but I'm running into some conceptual problems when setting it up to interact with JIRA Agile Sprints. I have a few questions:
Any thoughts on how to make this as elegant when integrated into a Scrum team?
Thanks!
Well, this is 4 years late, but I had a similar question and this article really helped me understand the different xray types in the context of sprints and releases:
"Tests, Pre-Conditions and Test Sets are reusable entities; thus, in typical scenarios, they do not belong to the scope of a release or of a sprint.
On the other hand, Test Executions, Sub-Test Executions and Test Plans represent work targeted for a given release and/or a given sprint. Thus, they can be tracked as any other issue that needs to be handled in the scope of your release/sprint. If you have these issues assigned to some release through the FixVersion/s field, then they will appear in the summary information of the Releases project page as shown ahead."

Hi Justin,
Did you ever get to the bottom of this? I'm currently investigating test tooling options for an Agile team and, without having implemented X-Ray yet, have the following model in my head:
I struggled conceptually due to having previously worked with Zephyr, in which executions only exist as (second class, conceptual) sub-types of Tests.
Would appreciate thoughts before we implement this strategy!
Kind regards,
