How to find a report of issues created in past {x} days, grouped by issue type

Question

Hi.

My team and I would like to do some research into where the majority of our new work comes in. It would be good to have some view as to what issue types are created most or least.

E.g. the "Issues created vs resolved" report would be great, if we could create separate lines for each issue type, though any variation on that that works would also be appreciated.

Specifically, we're looking for a single graph/chart for this, I'm aware of the many ways we can do this if we were to have each issue type as a separate filter.

Would rather something built in but happy to take suggestions on plugins also.

Thanks!

Well the pie chart would certainly provide a view into percentage by issuetype. If you want to add a dimension of time to this you could add that to your filter. You might consider the Two-dimensional gadget and show issuetype on the y-axis and maybe status on the x-axis or similar.

example filters...

project = abc

project = abc and createdDate >= startofday(-7)

Hi Jack,

Thanks for your quick response.

I realise I can do this individually with each issue type, but doing it manually like that is a burden and not really what we're hoping for. I'm specifically looking for a way to group these together on a single graph/chart.

I'll update my question to be more clear.

I would suggest to create a Dashboard and use maybe a pie chart or issue statistics gadget. if you wish to use the Created vs. Resolved and separate by issuetype then you would need to create a filter for each issue type. for example....

filter 1: project = abc and type = bug

filter 2: project = abc and type = task

filter 3: project = abc and type = enhancement

then add three Created vs. Resolved gadgets to your Dashboard and associate each to one of the filters and give the gadget a meaningful name.
