Hi Stelmach, > Not always, not by everyone. But as I know, JIRA can't support to display some tool tips on the transitions and states. If JIRA will support this in future, I will add them to make things easier for everyone.

There's a mail in the mailing list, I will forward to you after this mail, which containing some discussions why there are no such states. > Let's take a look at https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/browse/PTREL-156 >Indeed transitions have their names too. But why is there transition From >Assigned to New and the transitions is labeled "New"? Here's a principle for the names of states and transitions. The states use adjective or past tense, and the transitions often use verb. For instance, if there's state named "Assigned", the transition often use the verb "Assign". Here the transition "New" just like a verb. Any better word suggestion for this transition name "New"? > I am afraid I haven't. I JIRA will add this feature in the future version, I will help to add it.

Just as description here > https://source.tizen.org/bug-life-cycle .
