[Trac] Re: use cases
I would argue against the use of the ticketing system for managing your use cases for a few reasons, which you may or may not find applicable: a.)Managing the use cases in the same system as defects/enhancements/tasks breaks a task oriented ticket approach b.)It is possible that you may have multiple variants of a use case for minor modifications to baselines, which would be painful to duplicate in ticket form c.) Re-use of use cases for a similar program/project would probably require re-creating the ticket again, or making two tickets that are very similar The first item is probably the most important for development; it is typically more useful/productive to try to enter tickets in some task-oriented manner. The overall goal is then to have 0 non-resolved tickets. The next two are pretty much along the same vein, and affect those defining your requirements(if you have separate . It is far easier and quicker to copy/paste/modify a wiki or a document than it is a ticket. If you do this only a few times it is not a particular issue, but grows very tiresome. (On the flip side, if you have to change systems, all of your data is neatly packaged, and isn't too bad to migrate) I guess the better question at the moment is how you currently manage your requirements or requirements mapping. Typically you have a requirement UID, which maps to one or more use case UIDs, which are then referenced by one or more tasks. That would be an ideal scenario, but what level of detail or granularity you have can definitely vary by the industry you are in, and the project you are working on. We will typically have a separate use case document(if they are generated), and reference the use case #s in tickets(implement x-y of #13123). An excel document maps test cases UIDs to use case UIDs to requirements UIDs which map to customer requirements. If use cases are considered necessary for the scope, mapping to requirements occurs. As it sounds, it's a fairly labor-intensive process (and painful) to initially set up; much less so to maintain. I'd love to find some better way of doing it which doesn't require buying a 10k USD solution or having me manually move all the information currently entered in this form. What may be a feasible approach would be to create another Trac environment specifically for use cases, and then use the InterTrac interface to correlate tickets to particular use cases. That way you can have your task-based system and your data-based system working side by side. Hmm. I may have to start playing around with that some here. HTH, it gave me some benefits! :D James Guyton (JGU) From: trac-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dave Peacock Sent: Monday, November 19, 2007 1:29 PM To: trac-users@googlegroups.com Subject: [Trac] use cases Hi all- Just exploring & evaluating Trac now. Looks nice, there are some great features -- but what i'd really like to do is track use cases. Have seen one suggestion of using the tags plugin, this is not quite what i am after. Have seen a couple of examples out there of using the wiki for this, eg add UseCases and then go edit that UseCases and add UseCaseFirstOne and UseCaseSecondOne to that etc. Can easily link tickets to use cases and vice versa this way -- which is important. I haven't explored templates, i would guess you could set these up so person entering the use case can easily follow conventions. That's important too -- i'd like the people who are entering the use cases to follow the structure required for the use case but not have to pay attention to the wiki structure or have to know too much about the conventions. Formal use cases have well-defined fields, and in my mind entering a new use case would be similar to entering a new ticket. There are some fields to enter, and these are kept in a proper database. But is this overkill? It solves the problem of having the person entering the use case having to know anything about convention or structure, but maybe it introduces too much complexity? Interested in hearing thoughts from the group. How have you dealt with use cases? Did you use the wiki as above or some other bit of software (and if so do you link into trac), or do you just informally send these via emails, or something else? How is your solution working out for you? thanks in advance dave peacock --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Users" group.

[Trac] Re: Accessing only a part of the Subversion Repository
If I'm interpreting your question correctly, you want to set the [trac] repository_dir = variable in your trac.ini file to the desired location in your repository. i.e. your repository is located at C:\CM\REPO, and let us say your SVN is structured something like this: ADMIN PROJECTS\BANANA PROJECTS\MARGARITA PROJECTS\ICY-HOT PROJECTS\DRINK_KOESTER Now we say that you want to only have TRAC look at the DRINK_KOESTER project. You would set [trac] repository_dir = C:\CM\REPO\PROJECTS\DRINK_KOESTER then do a trac-admin resync, and should be good to go. Just as a note, this does not appear to work when used as an init_env parameter. If you are starting a new environment, you would use C:\CM\REPO as the parameter, then go and edit it manually after the initialization process is complete. HTH!

[Trac] Re: Can I generate links to the actual svn repository
Going out on a limb, it would probably be possible to define the base path your particular svn environment is located at in the specific trac.ini for your trac environment, then to modify the browser page to list the base path + your navigated path somewhere on the page. I would imagine that it could get fairly nasty when you start getting to InterTracs. There's a shot in the dark for you, but you would be better off listening to a dev's (Noah/Manu/etc) advice.

This depends on how you have decided to add permissions and what you need to do, but generally speaking you are correct. Specifically: If you have a user named bob that you need to give permissions to, you can do this two ways: 1) use permission add bob for each permission that is needed 2) use permission add usertype1 for each permission that is needed (this creates a group usertype1) permission add bob usertype1 which adds bob to that group.

I've tried: [projectdir]/templates/ticket.html [projectdir]/templates/ticket/ticket.html [projectdir]/ticket/templates/ticket.html [projectdir]/templates/ticket/templates/ticket.html Is what I'm trying to do possible? I'd like to avoid installing Trac on a whole different server just so I can play around with the core templates.

[Trac] Re: add more options to "resolve as:" in Ticket
I believe you can accomplish this through the workflow modifications in 0.11 (states and assignees), but I don't think you can prevent people from performing actions on it; i.e. a developer can put it to a resolved state (and you can set it so that it must enter a resolved state) and it is automatically assigned to a person, but you can't prevent the developer from going in and then setting it to a closed state. Hopefully someone will correct me if the above is incorrect. Of course, if your developer(s) start breaking your workflow in this manner(circumventing QA by directly closing tickets) , they need to be thoroughly chewed out. Another option is for your developer to assign it to a general QA person(in whichever state), who then validates and closes the ticket.

[Trac] Re: Multiple Track Sites on one Windows Server
SVN commits are separate from TRAC(unless this has changed for the .10 release, which I don't believe has happened). In order to have more than one SVN service running, you will need to assign each SVNserve service a different port. In order to have tracd (Trac) host more than one environment, you need to add the additional paths to the argument when you start tracd. This allows you to access multiple environments via one port. However, you can create a single repository, and have your Trac environments only look at certain sections of that repository. -Original Message- From: trac-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of zwetan Sent: Friday, September 29, 2006 12:08 PM To: Trac Users Subject: [Trac] Re: Multiple Track Sites on one Windows Server humm I know that configuring Apache look more work than tracd but if you want to provide svn commit access on more than 1 repo, is it possible from tracd ?

[Trac] Re: Slides describing Trac
John, Keep in mind the below are merely suggestions. What is the purpose of your presentation? Are you aiming it for users, administrators, or to convince management? For users: Screenshots, screenshots, screenshots. Having a live demo is neat; but unless you are actually leading people through it on a machine, they won't remember it. A third of the emphasis on your presentation appears to be the wiki feature. Honestly, the wiki is a good interface; but you don't need to know crap about it to just use Trac. It's really something that probably should be glossed over and highlighted at a later time, or if people are curious. If you are aiming it at software developers, highlighting the integrated issue system with the commit auto-update, as well as web-based revision diffing and log functions. Just the sheer fact that you can do a diff without having to check out different revisions is extraordinarily nice. If you are aiming it at PMs, noting the roadmap/milestone integration with the ability to assign tasks and/or defects to a milestone, and getting an at-a-glance overview of progress is godsend. If you are aiming it at management, licensing issues, sustainability, and cost are your key points. They may think the rest is neat, but they aren't going to be using it. Point by point: Introduction: You provide information that is in the agenda, and questions that you should either already know or should be asking at the end. Nix. Agenda: OK Overview: Trac is a web-based issue tracking and program management tool which integrates with a configuration management tool. Vocabulary: Depends on audience. If you are dealing with people who should be familiar with this, nix. Issue Tracker: Unless you are coming from a previous tool, or dealing with people who have, don't care what else it is like Wiki support: Neat. But a lot of non-useful information (command subsets). It's one of the features that doesn't come out well in a presentation format. Screenshot the hell outta it. Issue Tracker: Show customizablility, ease of use, query functionality. Again, screenshot to hell. Integration of SVN: focus on what you use. Don't care about any other SCM tools. Mention the revision log integration. Screenshot to hell. Good luck!
