Due to a ransomware attack, the wiki was reverted to a July 2022 version. . We apologize for the lack of a more recent valid backup.
This section introduces how to use JIRA in order to search for, and post, bugs, feature requests, and various project tasks.
JIRA - A Quick Overview
JIRA is the issue tracking system used by the ONOS project to keep track of various tasks and works-in-progress. These topics, called issues, are categorized based on:
- Type - a general category, such as a bug, story, or new feature
- Priority - how crucial it is to address the issue
- Epics - an overarching theme, such as a specific use case, or a class of task, such as documentation or testing.
- Labels - subcategories not associated with specific Epics or Types, such as Starter tasks aimed at beginners.
- Sprint - a span of time associated with a deadline, such as a phase of the release cycle.
Essentially, each sprint is made up of a set of issues, each associated with an epic and zero or more labels. Any issues not included in a sprint are part of the backlog.
An issue itself if identified by a JIRA-generated identifier of the form ONOS-<number>. For example, the issue for creating this page in the wiki was ONOS-371, a major-priority story part of the Documentation epic.
Atlassian provides some great tutorials on using Jira. Unfamiliar readers should therefore visit their website.
