How can we use Atlassian Jira automation rules to automatically update the status of a parent User Story based on the pass/fail results of linked automation test sub-tasks from the MCP Server?

Can this Generate and Auto-update the Status on the Local Device using the Auto-rule in Jira like Trigger and Condition

Use Jira Automation Rules with Katalon TestOps integration or Katalon Jira app to push test results (pass/fail) to sub-tasks, triggering parent User Story status updates—no direct MCP for rules, but API/webhooks bridge it.​

Setup

  1. Install Katalon Test Automation for Jira (Marketplace) → Link TestOps/Test Cases to Jira issues/sub-tasks.
  2. TestOps > Integration > Jira → Map results to status (e.g., Pass → “Done”, Fail → “To Do”).
  3. Jira Automation Rule:
  • Trigger: Issue Updated (sub-task status changes).
  • Condition: Test result = PASS (from custom field).
  • Action: Edit parent Story → Transition to “Done”.

Local Device: Run tests → TestOps syncs results → Jira rule fires instantly (no manual). MCP aids StudioAssist for querying during dev, not runtime rules.​
