Zephyr Scale Integration — CI Test Results to Zephyr Scale

Automatically export CI test results to Zephyr Scale for Jira. Map Jenkins jobs to test cycles, folders, and test cases with BuildButler.

If your team uses Zephyr Scale for Jira to manage test cases, BuildButler can automatically sync your CI test results into Zephyr Scale test cycles. No manual uploads, no Jira API scripting, no custom plugins to maintain.

How it works

BuildButler maps CI test results to Zephyr Scale test cases, test cycles, and test executions within your Jira project. After each build, results are exported automatically based on your configuration rules.
