Bugzilla is a popular open source bug tracker created originally by the Mozilla Foundation. It has an open architecture that allows extending its basic functionalities. This article lists the Bugzilla plugins, called add-on in Bugzilla, that allows integrating an Agile project management approach like Scrum or Kanban around the bug tracking features of Bugzilla.
There are currently few open source plugins that allow to add Scrum and Kanban features so that you can integrate an Agile project management approach with the basic functionalities of the Bugzilla open source bug tracking tool. Besides these open source extensions, there are also many commercial agile project management tools that have a connection with Bugzilla.
The official page for the Bugzilla add-on is https://wiki.mozilla.org/Bugzilla:Addons

AgileTools Bugzilla Extension
The AgileTools Bugzilla Extension provides tools to manage teams and their processes. It currently supports the Scrum approach and provides planning and progress tracking tools for teams using Scrum. In the future other process models, for example Kanban, could be added.

BzKanban
BzKanban is a Bugzilla Kanban board open source plugin that should work for Bugzilla. The board columns are the bug statuses your Bugzilla server is using (e.g. NEW, ASSIGNED, REOPENED, RESOLVED, CLOSED, etc). Actions such as loading the board, filtering by bug assignee or by bug title are possible without logging in if your Bugzilla server is open to the public. Otherwise you must login with your Bugzilla account first.
Actions such as changing the bug state (by dragging the card between columns), and adding a comment require logging in first. The bzkanban app is implemented as a client side Single-Page Application (SPA) with the Bugzilla 5 server REST API, so installation is very simple.

Scrumbugz (read-only archive)
Scrumbugz is a Bugzilla add-on that allows you to manage sprints backed by Bugzilla data. Thus, in order to use Scrumbugz, you need a Bugzilla instance that’s running a recent version of Bugzilla and the Bugzilla API. We think the minimum version is Bugzilla 4, but haven’t verified this. You don’t need to install Bugzilla on your machine. As long as you have access to a Bugzilla server, you’re fine.
