Issue Tracking Settings (v8.9.0)

Issue tracking for CxSAST can be performed using JIRA integration. JIRA is a proprietary issue tracking product that allows bug tracking and agile project management.

To configure JIRA integration:

On the CxSAST server (in a distributed deployment: on CxManager), open the following file for editing:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Checkmarx\CheckmarxWebPortal\Web\web.config 

Under the appSettings element, add:
<add key="EnableIssueTracking" value="true"></add> 

Log out of CxSAST Web Portal, if currently logged in.

Log in to the CxSAST web interface, go to Management > Application Settings > Issue Tracking Settings, and click Add Issue Tracking System:

Provide the top-level URL of your JIRA server, including the protocol (http or https) and port number, and a user account with permissions for creating issues and for reading issue metadata, and click Create:

Create a CxSAST project, and in the Advanced Actions stage, under Issue Tracking Settings, select the JIRA server.

Click Select, and configure JIRA issue submissions:

Set the JIRA Project and Issue Type.

Configure default values for issue fields: Select each JIRA Field, select a Field Default and click Set. Make sure to configure values for all mandatory fields (marked with *).

Click Save.

Back in the CxSAST project, click Finish.
