Atlassian today announced it has added four features to Jira Software Cloud that allow developers to visualize and measure progress across DevOps workflows. Suzie Prince, head of product for DevOps at Atlassian, said rather than organizations having to acquire and deploy separate tools to track DevOps metrics, Atlassian is moving to incorporate those capabilities in a platform that is already widely employed to manage application development projects. Two capabilities being added to the standard edition of Jira Software Cloud are Code in Jira, which makes it possible to view the most recently active repositories in Bitbucket, GitHub, GitLab or Git Integration for Jira from within Jira Software Cloud, and Deployments in Jira, which makes it possible to similarly view in real-time at what stage any deployment is on any continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) platform. The Premium Edition of Jira Software Cloud is gaining tools to track both deployment frequency and cycle times to provide more insight into how application development teams are maturing in terms of their overall DevOps proficiency.
