When Story is In Development, Move Epic to In Development + Start Date

[Pete Jaworski]

I Have the following scenario:

1. Test Epic
   1. Test User story 1
      1. subtask 1 - Test User Story 1
      2. subtask 2 - Test User Story 1
   2. Test User story 2
      1. subtask 1 - Test User Story 2
      2. subtask 2 - Test User Story 2

---

I need to be able to do the following:

1. When at least one subtask is moved to "In development" move story to "In Development"
   1. add start date to Subtask
2. When at least one User Story is moved to "In development" move Epic to "In Development"
   1. add start date to User Story
   2. add start date to Epic

Note: the start should not change each time a new subtask or user story gets moved to "In Development" Status. The Start Date should be the date the very first task gets moved to "In development."

Attached you will find a screenshot for point #1 - "When at least one subtask is moved to "In development" move story to "In Development" - The start Date it NOT working in this configuration.

Found the issue, since I'm moving code from an old plugin used in JIRA 6 to JIRA 7, apparently the method for creating these have changed, and the arguments are no longer passed in to the constructor. Instead, I just used ComponentAccessor to gather them together for use.
