What is Jira?

Jira is a work management tool for all kinds of use cases, from requirements and test case management to agile software development. Jira Software provides scrum and kanban boards out-of-the-box. Boards provide transparency across teamwork and visibility into the status of every work item. Time tracking capabilities and real-time performance reports (burn-up/down charts, sprint reports, velocity charts) enable teams to closely monitor their productivity over time.
