Working with Issues

Info

In this lab you will reuse the the Kanban Company Managed project, create an additional board, and populate the two boards with different types of issues

...

Make sure you are in the TODO App (KB CM)

...

If the project is not current, select the project from the Projects dropdown menu

...

On the left side below the project name you should see the word “Planning”, you will see a dropdown button, select it, it will show the current board in the project and other boards belonging to other projects. At the bottom is an option to create another board, select it

...

You will now have the option to create either a Scrum or Kanban board

...

Select Kanban, on the next screen select “Board from an existing project”, then select Next

...

Populate the board as shown here

...

Prefix the board name with what you intend to populate the board with (in this case - Tasks), then your team ID, and lastly the project name.

...

Select the project that will own this board. This should be the project you are currently in. Finally, select “Create board”

...

Select the view to show all the boards, you should now see your two boards

...

Select the original board that was created with the project. we are going to rename it so we know exactly what type of Issues will appear on it. Select the three dots on the upper right side of the board

...

Select board settings, then General

...

Select the Board name, edit it and prefix the name with (Stories)

...

Select “Back to board” upper right of the screen. It may take up to a minute for the board info to update, but once it does select the view to show all the board and it should look something like this

...

Review the sections “WORKING WITH ISSUES” and “ORGANISING YOUR BOARDS” in the PDF

...

Select one of your stories and break it down into smaller sub-tasks

...

Select the story on the Kanban board

...

A new window appears detailing the story, select “Create subtask”

...

A new section appears allowing you to enter to Subtasks summary title, enter a title and select “Create”

...

Create two sub-tasks

...

Close the window and navaigate to the Sub-tasks board. You will see that all the Issues are visible

...

We need to edit the filter for the board so that it only shows the Sub-Tasks and not the stories

...

Goto to the board’s settings (upper right of screen, the 3 dots), look for the “Filter Query” field - this will take you away form the project to an area dedicated to filters and issues

...

Edit the query by adding the following query element (add Tasks and All Sub-Task) - whilst you are editing the query switch between the JQLand Basic view

...

Once completed click the Save link at the top of the view

...

Select Projects and your project to see the changes (you may need to select the board to see if filter has been applied correctly), it should llok like this

...

Select the Story board. If it shows more than stories, edit its filter

...

After editing it, it should look like this

...

The PDF recaps on the demos the trainer did two weeks ago.

The project is a simple TODO Application, (open the link in a new TAB) the specification can be found here

You are going to create two projects, a Kanban Team Managed project and Kanban Company Managed project. The purpose of the exercise is to simply recognise the difference between the project types.

In both of these projects, you create issues. This is not a mammoth task. You should very quickly recognise that creating issues in Jira is very straightforward once the project has been set up.

There are six labs. Follow the sequence to get the best out of the labs
