Overview

CodeAnt AI’s Jira Ticket Compliance feature ensures engineering output aligns with Jira-defined scope. It cross-verifies whether the requirements listed in each ticket are fully implemented in the corresponding pull request—flagging deviations, partial implementations, or missed functionality.

This feature acts as a gatekeeper for scope creep, ticket inflation, and misaligned engineering work, driving accountability and tight product–engineering coordination.


Setup

  1. Connect Your Jira Workspace: Follow the instructions in the Jira Integration Guide to configure your Jira credentials in CodeAnt AI’s control center.

  2. Enable Ticket Compliance:

    • Navigate to SettingsAI Code ReviewTicket Compliance.
    • Toggle the feature on to activate compliance checks in your pull requests.
  3. Additional Requirement:

    • There should be atleast one Jira ticket id/link in title or description
  4. Result

    • If all the above requirements are met, then you will see a comment on your PR stating the compliance with the tickets

Key Features

  • Automated Scope Validation: Parses Jira tickets and compares expected functionalities against changes made in the pull request.

  • Clear Compliance Classification: Tags tickets as:

    • Compliant: All stated requirements met.
    • ⚠️ Partially Compliant: Some but not all requirements met.
    • Non-compliant: No clear implementation of ticket requirements.
  • Detailed Breakdown: Generates a Markdown summary listing:

    • Compliant Requirements
    • Non-compliant or missing implementations
    • Ticket metadata (status, ID, verification)
  • Pull Request Integration: Comments directly on the PR with a summary table, making it easy to review and act on.


Benefits

  • Product Alignment: Ensures engineers deliver exactly what was agreed upon with product teams.
  • Audit-Friendly: Creates a paper trail of what was implemented per ticket, useful for compliance and retrospectives.
  • Increased Accountability: Developers and reviewers get direct visibility into unmet ticket expectations.
  • Reduced Rework: Flags incomplete implementation early, preventing bugs and reassignments later.
