My previous experience was to track only stories and bugs against a release. 
Sub-tasks are always associated with a specific story and tracked that way.   
As for tasks, those usually indicate out of band (ie: non release) work that is 
to be done.

Just my $0.02...

Mark

Hi David,

I’m getting a little lost in the thread now.

Is there a perceived issue around having tasks that are not planned as part of 
a specific release?
It may even be that there are tasks that are being tracked in Jira that are not 
intended to be tracked to a release process.  (Lab tickets, wiki updates etc…) 
I’m not sure we should be terribly concerned with % of tasks intended to be 
completed as part of a release process or not.  We may also have projects that 
choose not to participate in a release at this stage that wish to use Jira 
which would further impact that % figure.
Assigning something to “future release” indicates it does not have a desired 
timeline which may not be the case, I don’t know that is the right way to 
address this.

Maybe we should focus our release metrics on tasks that are intended to be 
completed as part of a release activity.  Leave other “non-release related” 
Jira tasks out of those metrics.

/ Chris

Hi Morgan,

Sorry - I should have been more clear.  When I say "assigned", I mean "assigned 
to a release" (i.e. the "fix version" field is NOT empty).

Hi,

I am a bit surprised by the results.

I reviewed the FUNCTEST JIRA.
As far as I can read I found only 14 JIRAs non assigned, all the others are 
assigned.
For me, "assigned" means there is one person in the Assignee field, am I wrong?

the non assigned JIRA corresponded to:
- D release
- Epic: generic topic for which we do not necessarily assign someone, e.g. 
FUNCTEST-88 is the EPIC linked to documentation. JIRA tasks/bugs are created 
under this EPIC, all these JIRAs are assigned the umbrella EPIC was not.
As Epic does not appear in board/backlogs, I forgot to close some.

Team,

Some updates for this week's report:

  1.  My script will how automatically add any missing versions to your 
project, so you no longer need to worry about that task.  To be clear, the 
script simply makes the version strings available for selection in your 
project.  It does not assign any issues to those versions.
  2.  The script also now determines the ratio of unresolved issues to total 
issues assigned to the current release (i.e. Colorado 1.0)
Observations:

  *   The percentage of projects with no unassigned issues improved slightly 
from 15% to 25% since my first report.

     *   However, this still means that 3/4 of OPNFV projects still have 
unassigned issues.  We cannot do meaningful analysis of progress without 
knowing which version issues are assigned.
     *   Note that all projects now have the "Future Release" version string.  
So, if you do not plan to resolve an issue for the current release, and you 
aren't sure that you will do it in the next release, then assign it to "Future 
Release".

  *   We are less than one month out from the Colorado 1.0 release, yet there 
are a startling large number of issues assigned to the release that are 
unresolved.

     *   Please make sure that you are updating the status of your JIRA issues 
whenever there is a relevant change.  Don't let fixed issues remain reported as 
unresolved in JIRA.  This creates a lot of ambiguity when trying to understand 
the status of the project.
     *   For issues assigned to Colorado 1.0 that you don't believe will be 
resolved by the release date, you should start reassigning those to Colorado 
2.0, or some other future release.  Our goal is to have zero issues assigned to 
Colorado 1.0 by the date of the release.  Don't wait until the last minute to 
move the issues.
     *   Alternatively, if you believe that an issue is no longer relevant or 
important, then simply close it.  If you're wrong and the issue is important 
enough, then it will resurface.  In the mean time, there's no use in suffering 
the overhead.
Let me know if you have any comments or questions.
