How can I open a bug in Bonfire and assign it under an existing issue or subtask?

Sandeep Bhatnagar January 25, 2013

While testing using Bonfire, I'd like to open defects and assign them directly to existing issues/sub-tasks of project. How can I do that?

JIRA itself does not support any levels beyond sub-tasks. So how do you expect Bonfire to create sub-tasks under a sub-task?

AFAIK, Bonfire can create the new issues as a sub-task of an existing issue, not beyond that due to the above reason.

Thanks Renjith. Appreciate your response.

The work around I figured out was to use Bonfire and open up the issues as bugs while in a test session, and then link them together to an issue or the test session. It is a round about way, and a better feature would be to enable JIRA to allow these bugs to be directly linked to a sub-task.

Ah, you mean issue linking. Infact, Bonfire labels all the issue with the test session. Isn't that good enough Sandeep?

I have a project, under which I have Tasks/issues which inturn have sub-tasks. When the testers test the application, they should be able to assign defects under each sub-task. Hope that helps clarify.

What do you mean by 'assign them directly to existing issues' ?
