Mapping one state of workflow in another workflow

[Aamer Inam: M-3521]

Hello,

Can we map one state of one workflow to another in second workflow. There is one workflow that relates to development team and another workflow for testing, so from one state of development workflow say "In Test" , can we map this state in another workflow designed for testing and based upon next transitions of testing workflow say "Under verification" and once done like that issue is verified , it could update the state in development related workflow? Look forward to an urgent respone.

That does not work. An issue has a workflow, that's it. It doesn't change between workflows. So, while you can define a new workflow and apply it to issue types, there's no logical link between the first workflow and the second.

issue-1 uses workflow-1 and issue-2 uses workflow-2. That's it.

I'm not sure I understand what you're looking for here. Sounds like you need to consider sub-tasks or having a workflow that includes your test steps properly.
