Description Miroslav Hradílek 2015-07-03 12:57:56 UTC
Description of problem:
In order to properly integrate with New System we need a way to reference external Test Case and Test Plan that are defined by set of two alphanumeric ID's. 

First alphanumeric ID is the Project ID eg.: "BaseOS"
Second alphanumeric ID is the object ID
for Test Case eg.: "BaseOS-6381"
for Test Plan eg.: "graphviz General"

please note that Project ID does not need to match the prefix in object ID.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. File new bug.
2. Find "Add External Bug:".
3. Select "Location".
4. Fill "Bug ID".

Actual results:
After selecting any "Locaton" there is always only one Bug ID that is only numeric.

Expected results:
After selecting "New System Test Case" or "New System Test Plan" there should appear two inputs "Project ID" and "Object ID" both allowing alphanumeric entry.

Additional info:
This bug requests bugzilla aplication to generally support this functionality in external tracker.

The workaround to add this string 'RHEVM3/workitem?id=RHEVM3-10651' instead the ID of the case isn't good enough.

Can you please prioritize this bug?

Thanks,
Toni

I've added a new box to the external tracker which will allow the user to paste a full URL to the external bug.

Bugzilla will then attempt to resolve that into a 'External Tracker' and 'Bug ID'.  In the case of GitHub or similar trackers that do not us a single identifier, the URL minus the host name will be considered the 'Issue ID'
