Atlassian, the company behind the bug tracker JIRA and the wiki Confluence, announced that its newest product, Bonfire, is leaving beta.
Bonfire is a plugin for JIRA and a browser plugin for testing Web applications. You can use it to file bug reports and take screenshots without leaving the page you are testing. It’s specifically designed with agile methodologies in mind.

According to the official announcement, Bonfire’s features include the ability to:
- Submit bugs directly from the browser
- Add annotated screenshots with each bug
- Setup test sessions to track activity against a requirement or user story
- Create bug report templates to pre-populate meta-data and repetitive content
We’ve mentioned before that Atlassian wants to be the Adobe of the developer world. It now has a bug tracker, a software testing tool, an agile planning tool, a code repository and a wiki for documentation.
