How to install JIRA 7 on a Mac running OSX 10.11 El Capitan?

As a new user of Mac I under went the challenge of installing JIRA 7 on OSX 10.11. Not knowing what to expect I did a whole bunch of reading and jumped in the deep end in an agile approach. ie trial and error.

Now I know there are easier ways, but that wouldn't be half as fun right? It took me, a Mac novice, the best part of a day but I learnt a heck of a lot and once I had finished I was like, "it wasn't that hard". But then again, nothing is hard once you know how to do it.

I've documented the steps here. Hope this helps out other "unconventional" people who like to do things in different ways.
