RestApi Auth using Javascript,WDIO,node js

[CrazyAs5assin]

Hi , i am trying to upload Cucumber execution results back to Jira using Rest Api. I have previously used rest api using java to integrate with my selenium project. But in this organisation, i am using WDIO selenium with javascript . and jira is jira cloud along with single signon. I am not sure if i can use XMLHTTP request to connect with jira using my user name and Api token. 

Please suggest other ways if any to do it since i am new to nodejs and javascript

Hi

As per the previous reply there are a couple of apps which will import cucumber executions into Jira.  Our plugin will do just this:

AssertThat BDD & Cucumber for Jira 

Please get in contact if you would like a demo or more information.

Thanks

Hi @CrazyAs5assin 

You should be able to use your email address and API token: for basic auth against the REST API according to this documentation. A few years I had written a few utility scripts using that mechanism.

As a BDD coach of ten years experience, I'm interested by the requirement to upload the Cucumber results to Jira. I normally recommend storing the results on the CI Server and linking the CI server to Jira via the excellent development tools panel on Issues. The Pannel then displays the overall build result as a pass or fail.

Another option that is going to be recommended by people is Apps. There may apps that integrate Jira and Cucumber on the Atlassian Marketplace. Disclosure, I apply my BDD coaching knowledge as the Product Manager for one of those apps; Behave Pro for Jira.
