       Show HN: Datadog QA - TUI for Jira users to perform QA of future
       GitHub releases
        
       Hey there! We use this currently for releasing the Agent [1] and
       thought it would be nice to open up broadly for others.  [1]:

       | It is awesome to see the increase in popularity of `rich` and
       | `textual` libraries! Check them out if you want to develop a TUI
       | application or just make sure your CLI app looks awesome.
       | @willmcgugan is doing a great job! <3

       | Love to see the use of `httpx` as well, a great Python HTTP
       | client with support for both sync and async APIs.

       | title?

       | If I'm reading correctly this translates PRs into test tickets?
       | Is that a workflow that a lot of teams use? We usually just flow
       | the feature ticket from grooming to dev, to code review to QA,
       | then release.

         | This workflow has historically worked for us quite well. We

         | truth for activity that needs to be tested is beneficial for
         | never accidentally missing items.
         | 
         | FYI we used to use Trello (using the same workflow) but
         | switched to Jira and wrote this tool in the process. Jira
         | aggregation in the web app can be quite slow so actually this
         | tool makes tracking a bit nicer as well.
