Script Runner Version Match Query

[Kevin Dalton]

We’re investigating the use of ScriptRunner’s versionMatch function.   

project = "TEST" and status = "Open"  and "Reported Release" in versionMatch("^SC 4.*")

 Based on my understanding of JQL, at a high level I believe the query will do the following:

1. First, find all the issues in the Soarian Clinicals project with a status of Open
2. Second, it will search all issues on the server that have a Reported Release value that matches the regular expression.  
3. Lastly, it will union the results of the two queries to determine the final results set.

Can Adaptavist/Atlassian confirm this is correct?

 Also, when it tries to find all issues that match the regular expression, is that an indexed lookup of some sort that would make it somewhat efficient since there is not project qualifier for the versionMatch function?

Well, it will be the intersection of the result sets not the union because you used AND not OR, but I know what you mean.

I wouldn't anticipate that to be slow in any way because it will resolve to Reported Release in (\[some list of versions]), where that list is calculated from the reg ex.
