This solution sounds viable to me… that way we maintain the original assignee 
as Rafal mentioned… I didn’t know it was easy to clone a ticket.

What do others think?

Mark, you can create a new ticket for testing. To make it easier you could 
simply choose More Actions -> Clone and have a summary preceded with [TEST]. 
Such tickets should be linked as well.

The problem with changing an assignee is that one need to look through ticket 
logs to figure out who wrote the code.

+0.25. Typically we don't have separate testers, so the state won't get used 
much. But in situations where we do have a separate testing team, it seems 
worth having.

That said, when I've led a sprint where I want tickets to get out of the "needs 
review" box, but they shouldn't be Approved/Closed yet, I have labeled them as 
"passed-initial-review" (or something like that) and I configured the widgets 
on the dashboard to show "passed-initial-review" as 
done-for-purposes-of-the-sprint. (In this case I think it waiting for a second 
person to finish code review, after the first person had already approved the 
review.)

+1 for that state, because tickets end up getting left in another state when 
actually we are waiting for the feature/bug to get tested.

How would people feel about added an “Awaiting Vertification Testing” state to 
JIRA.

This is an awkward name, but I’m sure someone besides me could come up with a 
better one… :)

This state would fall between “Code-Review (Post-Commited)” and “Closed” state.

There are two (similar) use cases here:


1)      After code has been committed and reviewed, it is set to the Testing 
state for the original reporter to verify that it is fixed

2)      After code has been committed and reviewed, it is set to the Testing 
state and assigned to a tester for verification

This has come up because we’ve got a great volunteer tester here in the office, 
and I’ve been asking him to test and verify many of the features/bugs 
added/fixed during the HFE sprint.. but this has ended up with a lot of tickets 
remaining in the “Code Review” state when all that is required is final testing.

Also, I don’t know how “Assigned To” works… if multiple people are assigned to 
a ticket thorough it’s life, is this tracked (and searchable)?  If I assign all 
the tickets to our tester at the end of the workflow, is it going to look like 
he actually took on all the tickets?

Thanks,
Mark
