# Work Item Panel

Bestest integrates bidirectionally with Jira work items throughout the testing lifecycle:

* test cases and requirements can link to implementation stories
* test cases and requirements can be created and linked from this screen
* failed executions can create or link to defect tickets

This ensures complete traceability from requirements through testing to issue resolution.

On the Work Item page users can add/view/remove connection to Bestest objects.
