Closing Jira issues:
- QA should close all Jira issues. The exceptions to this are when developers enter work notes for themselves or notes for website/project work that are separate from the Thalia application.
Note: Developers should consider if issues they're creating are notes for obvious changes that need to be done vs. changes that are wanted but not approved/know to team. Issues that are requesting a change to functionality should be put in Triage for team review. - Comments should be added when closing issues to answer questions for others reading later. Comments should follow this format:
"Closing, verified by (describe at high level some of the testing, other areas checked, etc.), build version, URL where tested, operating system, user level (non-admin, admin or guest)." - Issues not fully resolved that need discussion should be Reopened with the Fixed Release changed to Triage for discussion at next Triage meeting.
- Issues mostly resolved should be Closed with a new issue created to cover the outstanding part, and then Link the issues.
