free jira cloud test management add on - jira

I was looking around for some time, but couldn' t find a free add-on to manage test cases, test plans et scenarios ect.
Do you know any who is free that can be installed on a Jira cloud solution ? or should i create my own custom Jira project for it, if there is no free one
Thanks

You could try the TestFLO app - it's available for both Server and Cloud instances of Jira. Not fully free, but at least you've got a free trial :) You can find it on Atlassian Marketplace, just like any app for Jira.

How to sign up for Jira?

Is this correct that Jira is installed on one's server or local computer and that's the only way to run it?
If not, how can I run, or connect to, Jira on Atlassian's server?
Namely, at this point I don't want to install anything on my VPS or computer, and instead I want to be able to run Jira in the cloud, the same way I'd sigu up for and then use bitbucket or github. That is, by creating an account. I need Jira for a couple of days only, to test some REST API.
Where does one sign up for Jira? There's no way, is there?
At the current time Atlassian provides a free plan for its Jira cloud service.

Bug Tracking Tools that Push to Jira

Our dev team uses Jira for our user stories. However, our clients don't have access to our Jira account. I am looking for a bug tracking tool that the clients can access and can sync/push the bugs they log into Jira. Does such a tool exist?
I found a good option with the tool ReqTest. Looks like there is a plugin for Jira that allows you to sync issues.

How do you keep track of deployment ids and builds

Currently I am working in a project where we have 8 instances accross different geographies. We currently use bmc rlm ( https://docs.bmc.com/docs/ReleaseLifecycleMgt/50 ) for deployment automation.
However to keep track of our deployment ids we are using excel.
Starting from Dev environment , to QA environment ( each region has
its own QA and schedule ) and ultimately move to Production.
What I wanted to know was , is there any tool that you use to keep
track of deployments ?
We tried using sharepoint but it is kind of limiting in the features.
We would ideally like a workflow to be created , whereby developers
submit the request with the dev deployment id.
Workflow goes to Release Approver for QA env. Once he/she approves ,
QA testing team gets notified.
Please let us know if anybody else faced this kind of issue and used some tools for the same?
We have recently started public preview of Reliza Hub https://relizahub.com which aims to solve this problem.
Some of the functionality you are asking (particularly approvals) is not there yet, but it's coming. Tracking functionality and mapping instance to releases is there already.
Currently I'm trying to add documentation as we go, so far Version Increment workflow is documented here. And functionality to send release data to Reliza Hub is documented in our client github.
Would be happy to provide support and discuss incomplete or missing features via our new reddit channel r/Reliza.

JIRA integration to my project

How should I integrate JIRA to my software to be able to use it's ticket management?
I've gone through REST API documentation but not able to understand what exactly should I do.

Need clarification on QuickBooks Desktop integration with Sync Manager vs Web Connector

From what I understand, Intuit is no longer allowing proprietary integrations with QuickBooks Desktop editions through the Sync Manager and only allowing apps that are put into the marketplace. Is this really the case? If so, is there a timeline for when they will start allowing this? Also, it seems that the supported objects for desktop editions is way behind those supported for the online edition. Will these be available any time soon (I.e. reports such as balance sheet, profit/loss, budget, etc.)?
I ask because we have been using the web connector for a couple of years now and it is not built for the type of use we need. To be specific, we are a franchising company that has a hosted QB solution for each of our franchises. We then pull data and pass jobs to and from our proprietary POS application through the web connector. We run into all sorts of problems with multiple web connectors being open on the same system trying to connect to different files and a host of other issues. Because of this, we are hoping that a more reliable integration can be developed through the Sync Manager.
From what I understand, Intuit is no longer allowing proprietary integrations with QuickBooks Desktop editions through the Sync Manager and only allowing apps that are put into the marketplace. Is this really the case?
Correct. QBD integration with SM and V3/V2 REST endpoints are not supported.
Apps.com is the mainly the SaaS marketplace ( mainly focused on QBO).
No new integration using QBD V3 can be created.
Also, it seems that the supported objects for desktop editions is way behind those supported for the online edition. Will these be available any time soon (i.e. reports such as balance sheet, profit/loss, budget, etc.)?
V3 QBD APIs are already marked as deprecated. There will not be any development on this.
