Your Journey to Atlassian Jira Cloud with Zephyr Squad
Greetings community, Surely by now, most of you are aware of Atlassian’s shift in strategy to become a cloud-first company. This has some important implications to anyone who uses their Server based products, including apps. TL;DR: Follow these steps to migrate your Zephyr Squad app data using JCMA: Follow Atlassian's guide to setup theJCMA Followour Cloud migration guide to complete the migration Key dates per Atlassian’s FAQ page: February 2, 2021 – Atlassian customers can no longer purchase or request a quote for new Server licenses. February 2, 2022 – you will no longer be able to upgrade or downgrade user tiers for your Server products or apps (with some exceptions) February 2, 2023 – Existing customers can no longer purchase Server apps on the Marketplace February 2, 2024 – Atlassian stops support for Server products and apps What does this mean for Zephyr Squad customers? From my calls with some of you, and what I keep hearing from our support team, is that many of you are already actively exploring your options. While some are choosing to stick with on-prem by moving to Data Center, many of you are making plans to migrate everything to Cloud, including apps. Here at SmartBear, we are committed to facilitating a smooth transition to Cloud for all our customers. This includes brining feature parity between Server and Cloud products, supporting automated migration tools like JCMA, and be compliant with a number of Atlassian Cloud security and reliability programs on the Marketplace. What is the recommended migration path to Cloud? Atlassian’s Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA) is your primary path to Cloud. It is an application that helps you move projects, users, and groups from Jira Core or Jira Software on Server to Cloud.The automated app migration functionality in JCMA is now in an open beta, which means that all users can migrate their app data over to Cloud. Are there any feature differences between Jira Server and Cloud versions of Zephyr Squad? If you want to move to the Cloud version of Zephyr Squad, it’s worth considering feature differences from Server. We’ve created a handy Server/DC vs Cloud comparison matrix where you can review these differences in detail. Are there any limitations regarding what data I can migrate using JCMA tool? Yes. Because of feature differences between the Server and Cloud versions of the Zephyr Squad, some data will not be migrated. Please refer to the ‘Known issues and limitations’ section of the Cloud Migration Guide. Are there any alternatives to using JCMA? Yes.Zephyr Migration Tool by SmartBear is another solution for migrating Zephyr Squad data from Jira Server to Jira Cloud. This approach is recommended if JCMA isn't working for you, and your Jira instance is middle-sized with a few projects, as this migration utility can migrate Zephyr Squad data only for one project at a time. What if I need any help with the migration? If you require technical assistance, please check out the Cloud Migration FAQ or raise a ticket with our support team. Tell us a bit about your Cloud migration journey I’ll conclude this post with a question to you, our awesome community. What is your plan of action around migrations?

Zephyr Migration from Jira Server to Jira Cloud
I completed a test migration from server to cloud about 2 weeks ago and all the test details and data migrated over. I went through and completed the real migration over the weekend and none of the test details or data migrated from our Server to our cloud instance. Any one have any suggestions on what I can do to complete this data move. I followed the JCMA migration instructions that I followed when I did our test migration.
Zephyr Cloud REST API : How to Add Defects by API Update Execution?

Dear community, we are currently investigating all possible ways to migrate our testcases (including attachments / screenshots of test-steps / related cycles and other artefacts) from Zephyr Squad to Zephyr Scale, with the least manual involvement. We are talking about 1200 test cases. We only want to use one test-management addon in the future. We currently have both addons running on the same Jira Data Center instance. So what are the possibilities? Anybody had the same scenario at hand and came up with a solution? Thanks, ChristophMigration from X-ray to Zephyr
Our company is planning to switch from Xray to Zephyr Squad. Iam looking to see if we can easily migrate all X-ray related issue types from Xray to Zephyr. So, curious if the X-ray and Zephyr Squad Jira issue types map one to one, and if there will be any loss of information or documents when migrating all of the Xray related issue types to Zephyr (i.e. test results docs, test scenarios as we are using Cucumber test-type, and any historical-data i.e. who changes what?) Thanks for your help!
Unable to run my gradle project after adding zfj-cloud-rest-client-1.2-jar-with-dependencies.jar
Hi, We have a java gradle project thatupdates statusof automation test cases in Jira via Zephyr APIs. For these calls we had been using basic authentication(userame/password). After Jira cloud migration, basic authentication failed to work due to deprecation (https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/deprecation-notice-basic-auth-and-cookie-based-auth/) and so we followed this guidelinehttps://support.smartbear.com/zephyr-squad-cloud/docs/api/jwt-token.htmlto generate JWT tokens for Zephyr calls. When I created a blank new project with the SampleJwtGenerator class it worked fine and I was able to successfully use the generated JWT tokens. But when I tried to include theSampleJwtGenerator class in our existing project (our project is based onSpring Framework 5.3.12) I could not run the project, I get the following exception Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 'void org.springframework.core.annotation.AnnotationAwareOrderComparator.sort(java.util.List)' at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.getSpringFactoriesInstances(SpringApplication.java:458) at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.getSpringFactoriesInstances(SpringApplication.java:450) at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.getBootstrapRegistryInitializersFromSpringFactories(SpringApplication.java:294) at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.<init>(SpringApplication.java:285) at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.<init>(SpringApplication.java:266) at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.run(SpringApplication.java:1343) at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.run(SpringApplication.java:1332) at com.hyland.jiraconnector.JiraConnectorServiceApplication.main(JiraConnectorServiceApplication.java:25) Please can you provide any guideline to solve my problem?
