Sandbox challenges
To pass the exam, technical knowledge of managing Jira projects is crucial, but it is not enough. The majority of exam questions are based on scenarios that must be understood, analyzed, and evaluated to find the correct answer that fits the stated constraints.
The following challenge will assist you in exploring a scenario with creating and configuring a team-managed project. They will help to develop your approach and prompt you to investigate different methods and solutions as you prepare for the exam.
Create and configure a team-managed project
In this challenge, you will experiment with team-managed project configuration and usage. To experiment with project access and permissions, you will need to log in as another user.
Also, you will need to create issues and a sprint in the project to complete this challenge.
Finally, if you wish, you can turn off notifications for the project by deleting each notification or removing the recipients.
- Create a new team-managed scrum project.
- Review and update the project access settings to only include specific users.
- Add a person to the project as a Member.
- Create and assign issues, add them to a sprint, and start the sprint.
- Group the issues by assignee on the sprint.
- Add the Report Name and Color custom fields to an issue layout.
- Create a new custom Checkbox field, with three options.
- Add the custom Checkbox field to the Story and Bug issue type’s layouts.
- Change the options for the custom Checkbox field on one of the issue types.
- View the custom Checkbox field on issues for both issue types. Note the change to options on both.
- Update the preselected (default) value to be different choices on the Bug and Story issue types.
- Create an issue of each type and view the preselected value for each.
- Add a custom role and delegate specific permissions such as “Edit and comment”.
- Grant a user only the new role.
- Log in as that user to view the results.
- Create another custom role with all permissions except “Administer project name”.
- Create restrictions on a specific issue type, using the custom role.
