I am interested in the ability to link related tickets together. I know that I can edit a ticket's description and place a reference to another ticket there-in (or similarly in a comment), but that does not automatically link the target ticket back to the source ticket.
Our customer uses the JIRA system for issues, and JIRA has the nice feature of Links - it allows establishing a link in a given ticket (i.e. tic_1) to another related ticket (i.e. tic_2) in a dedicated field on the ticket. There is then a LINK section on the ticket that will show tic_2 (when looking at tic_1), and vice-versa show tic_1 [when looking at tic_2]. this reverse linking is automatically established when the initial link is defined. As the link can be initiated from either ticket, it can also be dropped from either ticket. There is no limit to the number of links to;/from a given ticket. JIRA also provides the feature of specifying the TYPE of relationship between the tickets - i.e. Parent Of/Child of. However this additional information is not critical - simply having the ability to auto-establish bi-direction links b/w tickets is what is useful and desired. This can come in extremely handy in a situation where perhaps a Parent Ticket is created to round up Child tickets for bugs/enhancements that will go into a release. Understandably milestones & versions can aid in this also - but a ticket as a Parent issue for a release provides the ability to attach a deployment schedule, contingency plans, etc to the release as a whole. Any information on how to achieve this, or if there is a plug-in, etc would be greatly appreciated. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/bi-directional-links-between-tickets-tp23636870p23636870.html Sent from the Trac Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Users" group.
