Jira sucks, but I have yet to see a tracking tool which sucks less.

Jenkins is what I want to use, because for all its clunkiness it has a better deep integration with my actual build tools than any other CI tool I've ever seen. It's a pain for the admin but it's great for the user, so if anything it's the opposite of JIRA.

It's not great CD bit you need entirely different system just to display code coverage in near-every other CI

Near-every other CI also can't just browse which tests failed and with what message without digging directly into logs

Genuine question: what would you recommend instead of JIRA?
