Unable to set field hidden

Question

Hi,

I want to set a field hidden based on another custom field using behaviour. But the hidden field is not showing up when i select Yes. Please see code:

//defining variable to get custom fields

def testscript_field = getFieldByName ("Tests Scripts / Test Results successful (Yes/No)")
def Signoff_path_field = getFieldByName ("Specify Test Scripts/UAT Signoff path")

//Retrieving the current field value as a String
def script_value = testscript_field.getValue() as String
def isOtherSelected = script_value

if(testscript_field == "Yes")
{
Signoff_path_field.setHidden(false)

}

else
{
Signoff_path_field.setHidden(true)
//Signoff_path_field.setRequired(true)
}

Thanks

Swarna

Hello,

Could you add logging to your code and have a look in the atlassian-jira.log file for your logging output?

//defining variable to get custom fields

def testscript_field = getFieldByName ("Tests Scripts / Test Results successful (Yes/No)")
def Signoff_path_field = getFieldByName ("Specify Test Scripts/UAT Signoff path")

//Retrieving the current field value as a String
def script_value = testscript_field.getValue() as String
def isOtherSelected = script_value

log.error("isOtherSelected:  " +isOtherSelected )

log.error("Signoff_path_field: " + Signoff_path_field)

if(isOtherSelected == "Yes")
{
Signoff_path_field.setHidden(false)

}

else
{
Signoff_path_field.setHidden(true)
//Signoff_path_field.setRequired(true)
}

Hi Yogesh,

I have updated the script but still the another field is not showing up

//defining variable to get custom fields

def testscript_field = getFieldByName ("Tests Scripts / Test Results successful (Yes/No)")
def Signoff_path_field = getFieldByName ("Specify Test Scripts/UAT Signoff path")

//Retrieving the current field value as a String
def script_value = testscript_field.getValue() as String
def isOtherSelected = script_value

if(isOtherSelected == "Yes")
{
Signoff_path_field.setHidden(false)

}

else
{
Signoff_path_field.setHidden(true)
//Signoff_path_field.setRequired(true)
}
