How to record build identifier in JIRA issue?

Joel Parker January 3, 2012

For our project, we'd like developers to be able to record the build date a particular issue was seen in as a part of the issue. Is there a best practice for setting this up?

One thought I had was to use the Affects Version/s field, but we do builds nightly, and that would require creating one version per day. Right now we use that field for public and milestone releases.

All we want is to be able to tag an issue with "yyyy-mm-dd" of the build that the bug was triggered with. Suggestions?

Note that we're not using Bamboo/Jenkins, we have our own build process.

Your best bet would be to add a DateTime CustomField to your screens - you can do this following the instructions at http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Adding+a+Custom+Field
