In addition to custom workflows for versions and releases, Release Management app allows to create intermediate milestones for both that could be
either linked to accomplishments of certain steps in workflow
or other important check-ins, not necessarily connected with workflow steps
Once specified for versions and/or releases, milestones will be outlined on Timeline view (incl. Gadgets) as well as become input parameters for Burnup and Trends Reports (incl. Gadgets).
The following sections outlines the functionalities in all the details.
Manage Milestones
Add milestone
To add milestone cherry pick any version or release on the road to open an “Edit“ dialog. Select “Milestones“ tab. Specify your first milestone title, date and Click “Add“.
Edit milestone
We support in-line editing for Milestones so pick the property you want to change to alter.
Achieved flag
Milestone could be marked as “Achieved“ or not (by default). This could happen either manually clicking on the slider:
or automatically by moving version/release into specific column (status):
Color coding
If you miss Milestone or create one in the past it will be colored in Amber.
If you schedule a Milestone outside the boundaries of the version/release defined by Start/Release date it will be colored in Yellow.
Ordering milestones
Milestones are ordered the way you create it. To change it, just drag and drop specific row to the place you want to keep it.
