Traceability report - Jira Issues to Features / Scenarios
The Traceability report maps Jira Issues with BDD features and scenarios. The report uses JQL (Jira’s Query Language) to identify which issues to display in the Traceabilty report. The report displays traceability between all Jira Issues and BDD features and scenarios with the exception of AssertThat Test Plans (AssertThat Test Plan reporting).

Constructing JQL - Best Practice
The easiest way to build up your JQL is to use Jira’s Search Issues functionality to build up your JQL.
Choose the Jira icon then > Issues and filters.
Select Search issues.
If basic search is shown instead of advanced search, click Advanced (next to the icon). If advanced is already enabled, you'll see the option of switching to basic.
Enter your JQL query. As you type, Jira will offer a list of "auto-complete" suggestions based on the context of your query. Note, auto-complete suggestions only include the first 15 matches, displayed alphabetically, so you may need to enter more text if you can't find a match.
Press Enter or click Search to run your query. Your search results will display in the issue navigator.
Alternatively in Jira’s Search Issues start building your query in basic then switch to advanced to display the JQL for your search.
