Time Tracking for both Dev & QA

Olivier Dignard December 19, 2022

We are using "Time Tracking" (Estimated/Remaining/Logged) for the devs but we would like to add it for the QA too.

We are searching for a better way to do it that to merge them together (can be misleading if we don't know how long each team need) or to add a sub-task for QA on all the tickets to track QA time on the sub-tasks.

Any idea? Is there a way to have two "Time Tracking" on the same ticket ?

@Olivier Dignard Hi Olivier, did you find a solution for your issue? We just came across the same question. Actually, I was thinking that both Dev & QA could track their time on the same ticket. And then afterwards when doing the evaluation there should be a functionality/app to split the efforts based on the person that tracked the time. But so far I did not find a tool for that.

Hi Oliver, 

Hope you are doing well. You could have separate subtasks for QA and Dev and maintain the work logs on respective subtasks. You have the option of viewing the collective time on the parent issue (refer to the below screenshot). 

I hope this at least partially tends to your needs.
