BDD and Gherkin scenarios in Jira Cloud

BDD Scenarios for Jira by Bitwerf puts behaviour-driven development where the conversation happens: on the story. Product owners, developers and testers write Given / When / Then scenarios on the Jira issue; your build runs them with Cucumber and sends the results back to the same issue.

Moving from Behave Pro

Behave Pro for Jira Cloud is a Connect app; its last Marketplace update was on 24 November 2022 (Atlassian Marketplace, 31 October 2026). Atlassian ends support for Connect apps on 31 January 2027. To move your scenarios:

1. Install BDD Scenarios for Jira by Bitwerf.
2. Take the .feature files from your Git repository.
3. Make sure each file has its story key as a tag before the Feature: line (for example @ABC-12) or a file name that starts with the key.
4. On the project's BDD documentation page, click Import .feature files and select the files.
5. Add the two curl calls from the documentation to your pipeline.

Questions

Do I need a separate test management tool?

No. Scenarios live on the issue, results come from your own Cucumber run, and JQL plus the project page give you the overview. If you already use a test management tool, you can still keep your Gherkin next to the story.

Which Cucumber tools work?

Any tool that reads .feature files and writes Cucumber JSON: cucumber-js, Cucumber-JVM, Behave, Reqnroll / SpecFlow, Godog and others.

Can we keep our feature files in Git?

Yes. Export them in CI before the run, or import existing files into Jira with the import button on the project page.

Does it work in other languages than English?

Yes. All 80 Gherkin languages are supported, including Dutch, German, French and Spanish.
