[xwiki-devs] [Discussion] JIRA: Improving QA/Test Reports + relaxing JIRA rule

Hi devs, Sorin and Silvia are helping us in term of improving the quality of platform/XE/XEM by systematically testing milestones/RCs/final versions. They've started a TestReports space on xwiki.org where he's going to put all his test reports from now on: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/TestReports/ In those reports, when a test fails they'll need to create a JIRA issue (instead of pointing to a page on the incubator). This would make it much easier for reporting purpose, to see all the issues they've created and for us to see all issues found by the Q&A team. The problem is that our current JIRA strategy is to NOT create jira issue for issues that haven't been "released" already (instead the strategy is to comment in them). I'm proposing to relax this rule in the following manner: * Allow to have "affects" and "fix for" be the same value in JIRA * Automatically exclude from our release notes issues where "affects" == "fixfor" In addition IMO it would be good for Sorin/Silvia to: * Link the newly created jira to an existing jira WDYT?
