πŸ“Š Automate QA Reporting: Ready-to-Use Jira Slack Control Chart Bot

If you’re still manually tracking how long issues stay in Ready for QA β†’ Done, this tool will save you time every single week.

I’ve built πŸ› οΈ Control Chart Snapshot Bot
β€” a ready-to-use open-source solution that:

  1. pulls data from Jira,
  2. calculates QA cycle time,
  3. generates a chart & summary stats,
  4. and automatically posts results into Slack.

You can plug it into your workflow today with just Jira + Slack tokens.

πŸ”§ How it works:

  1. Connect Jira API + Slack API
  2. GitHub Actions runs the script weekly
  3. Your Slack channel receives a snapshot with Mean / Median / P75 + histogram.

πŸš€ Why it’s useful

  • No more manual spreadsheets or Jira exports
  • Weekly snapshot of QA performance
  • Spot anomalies where issues stay in QA too long
  • Improves visibility for both testers and managers

πŸ“‚ Repository

πŸ‘‰ Code is open-source here

I’d love your feedback, ideas, or Pull Requests.
My goal is to grow this into a practical open-source QA tool that any team can adopt.

πŸ›€οΈ Roadmap:

πŸ“Š Trend chart (7-day moving average)
🧩 Component/Epic breakdowns
βš™οΈ YAML config & richer filters
πŸ§ͺ Test execution correlation (Testomat integration)
🐳 Dockerfile & Cloud Run job
πŸ’¬ Slack slash commands /qa-snapshot
