1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000 Welcome to the testing world. 2 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:07,000 So previously we have seen how we can use JIRA for bug tracking. 3 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:10,000 So we have seen different lifecycle. 4 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:16,000 When a tester is reporting a defect, then developer is working and after that tester is again working. 5 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:21,000 Now I'll show you how we can use JIRA for task management. 6 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:27,000 But before moving to the actual usage, first of all, we need to understand what do you mean by task 7 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,000 management? 8 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:32,000 And this is the feature which is not only used by testers. 9 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:40,000 It will be used by the complete team, including tester, developer, maybe manager, content writer. 10 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,000 So anybody in the team is going to use JIRA for task management. 11 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,000 Okay, let's take an example. 12 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,000 I'm working as a software tester. 13 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:58,000 We got some requirement and my lead want to give me some task of test case designing and test case execution. 14 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,000 Previously, we are doing this task management through emails or verbally. 15 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,000 Like as a lead, I'm. 16 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,000 I'm giving a task verbally to my team member. 17 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,000 He will do that. 18 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,000 But now if we have a JIRA we can use it for. 19 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,000 Task management means whatever the task. 20 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:19,000 I want my team to be complete. 21 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:23,000 I'll create here in the right self how we can do that. 22 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,000 I'll show you. 23 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,000 But I'm just moving. 24 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:27,000 Yeah. 25 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:32,000 So what we can do in the task management, like I can create different type of task. 26 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:36,000 It could be development task or testing task or maybe any other task. 27 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:40,000 I can assign these tasks to the different developers or tester. 28 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:45,000 So both developer and Tester is going to use JIRA for task management. 29 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,000 And what all the advantages we are going to get. 30 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:53,000 So it will be very easy to track task progress. 31 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:59,000 So I can see if I have created a task of task is designing and given it to my team member. 32 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:05,000 And in the same way I have created 50 different tasks and given to the different team members. 33 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:11,000 Later on I want to check progress of a particular task, so I need not to ask my team member. 34 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,000 I'll just go to the JIRA and check progress over there. 35 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,000 How we can do that. 36 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:22,000 I'll cover up in the coming sessions in the same way by using this JIRA task management of the JIRA, 37 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,000 we can easily track team progress. 38 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:33,000 So if Manager want to check how many tasks is created for the team and how many are completed so he 39 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,000 or she will will not have to ask by individual team members. 40 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:45,000 My manager can go directly to the JIRA and check it over there in the same way they can check progress. 41 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:53,000 Project progress means if I say I have 1000 tasks, 1000 total tasks for the current project, how many 42 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,000 completed? 43 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:54,000 So. 44 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:58,000 So anybody can easily go and check in the JIRA. 45 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:04,000 So if you are following the JIRA for task management, it will become very easy to work on if you are 46 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,000 working in the small or large size of team. 47 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:13,000 Now, in the coming lectures, I'll show you how we can use JIRA for task management. 48 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,000 But before going to the actual task management, we must have understanding. 49 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,000 What do you mean by task management? 50 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,000 So here I'm just going to give you a few more examples. 51 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,000 First, I'll give you an example from the testing point of view. 52 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,000 So I'm working as a test lead. 53 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:34,000 I want my team member to work on test kits, designing test kits, execution, document preparation. 54 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:39,000 So what I'll do, I'll just create task here in the JIRA and assign it to the different team members 55 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,000 in the same way. 56 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:48,000 If I say I'm working as a development lead and I want my development team members to work on extremely 57 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:54,000 designing server side coding API development, so what I can do, I'll just create a task and assign 58 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,000 to the different team members after assignment. 59 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:03,000 I know that who is working on which task and what all the tasks are completed, what all pending. 60 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:08,000 So we can easily track through the task management in JIRA. 61 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,000 So in this session we have seen what is task management in next section. 62 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,000 I'll start with how we can create tasks here in JIRA. 63 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,000 That's all we have. 64 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,000 Thanks for watching this video.
