Japanese word for Godzilla, which is a reference to a competitor Bugzilla.

JIRA has configurable link types with user-defined semantics. JIRA also has pluggable remote

issue links, that allow to link an issue to any other entity outside JIRA Bugzilla has only one link

type: blocks/depends, plus a Bug ID custom field

Unlike Bugzilla, JIRA allows to define multiple workflows which are applied based on the

issue's Project and Type Unlike JIRA, Bugzilla can let users select the initial status of a new

issue

Custom field types available in JIRA are too many to list, and even more custom field types

available from plugins Custom field types available in Bugzilla are Text fields, Multi-selection,

Drop-down, Date/time, Bug ID

JIRA allows conditional configuration based only on Project and Type fields Bugzilla lets you

show/hide the whole custom field or specific values based on the value of some other field

JIRA lacks advance-level search options. JIRA has flexible JQL language (JIRA Query

Language) that allows you to build arbitrary boolean expressions Bugzilla's comes with a

powerful advanced search option




4. Can Jira be used for test case management?

 Although JIRA was not designed to serve as a Test Case Management, it can be
configured to support test case management in two different ways.
You can either change native components in JIRA to meet test case management needs or you

can use one of the add-ons available in Atlassian Marketplace (Example: Zephyr of JIRA)

order to reach a certain goal. A workflow in JIRA is defined as a series of sequential
tasks (such as create/open a bug, Work in progress, and completed/closed) involved
in the life cycle of a bug or an issue.

6. Explain working with workflows in JIRA?

 A JIRA workflow is a set of statuses and transitions that an issue travels through during
its lifecycle and normally represents processes within your organization. There are pre-
defined built-in workflows that can't be edited; however, you can copy and utilize
these workflows to create your own.

or global
