Synchronize Comments

Yes

Synchronizes all comments added in JIRA to Enterprise Tester.

Add Trackback Comment

Yes

Adds a comment to the synchronized JIRA incident with a trackback link to the Enterprise Tester incident: Linked to Enterprise Tester incident — e.g. Incident: http://server/EnterpriseTester/#/incident/edit/04e7f9e5-5784-4e94-a863-9ef600f0a935 (Name: ). If a comment already exists with the same value, then the comment is not added.

This task will be disabled by default, as its functionality is superseded in JIRA 5 and above by Enterprise Tester's support for creating remote links. If you are using an earlier version of JIRA you may wish to enable this task.

Copy

When configuring a Copy Field Type field,  you will only need to select the JIRA and Enterprise Tester fields that you are mapping. The text or value from the source incident will be copied to the incident in the other system.

On synchronization you can set a value for a field to a specified value. You only need to specify the field in Enterprise Tester and the value you would like to set.

If the field value is null or empty you can set the field to be set to a specified value. For this configuration select the field and the value to set.

Map

When using the Map Field configuration, you will be required to manually map the field values. This is useful when the values in Enterprise Tester and JIRA are different or if you have more than one value that will map to the same value in the other system.

To complete this configuration, you will need to choose Enterprise Tester and JIRA fields whose values will be synchronized. Then you will need to complete mapping any values that do not exist in the system that you are synchronizing to. All values that have exact matches in both systems will automatically be mapped.
