This release delivers the following enhancements:

This release also includes a number of fixes. For full details please see the GreenHopper 6.0.6 Release Notes and the GreenHopper 6.0.5 Release Notes.

Epics now available via Labs

We hope you enjoy the much-requested epics, now available in an initial implementation via Labs. Expect to see further development of epics in upcoming GreenHopper releases in the near future.

エピックは、ストーリーを管理する追加の階層として機能し、プロジェクト内またはプロジェクトをまたぐ課題グループに対して、計画立案する際の指針としての役割を果たします。エピックを活用することによって、スクラムマスターとプロダクトマネージャーは、すべて共通のテーマで関連している重要な課題グループを測定することができます。

In GreenHopper, an epic is simply an issue of type "Epic", which has a label (e.g. "My Epic") with which other issues can then be associated (linked).

Once activated in Labs, you will see an Epics panel at the left of the screen in Plan mode (for Scrum boards only):

(tick) A few tips:

  • To view just the issues for an epic, click the epic in the left-hand panel.
  • You can click Tools > Hide/Show Epic Panel if you wish.
  • Epic issues may also appear in Kanban boards that include a project containing epics. To prevent this, add issuetype != epic to your board's filter.
  • To allow epics from a different project, add (project = AAA and issuetype = Epic) to your board's filter.

Creating an epic involves specifying the epic's label (please see Creating an Epic for more details):

You can then simply drag-and-drop cards (issues) onto your epic (see Adding an Issue to an Epic):

See also Removing an Issue from an Epic.

Technical notes

If you have previously been using epics on the Classic Boards, please note the following:

  • Classic epic-issue relationships are not migrated and the new implementation uses a completely different mechanism to join epics and their issues.
  • After epics are enabled in labs we do not recommend using the Classic New Card button or the JIRA Create Issue button to create new epics.
  • "Old" epics may be visible in the new "Epics" panel, if they used the "Epic" issue type, but please note that labels will need to entered manually, and links to other stories may need to be recreated.

The Classic implementation of epics is very different to the new implementation which introduces some new custom fields and custom field types. Please see GreenHopper JIRA Configuration for details.

The new implementation of epics will eventually include an 'Epic Status' field that will be used to exclude epics that are complete. To exclude any pre-existing epics in your system that are complete change the filter for your board to include 'and (issuetype != Epic or resolution is empty)'

The new implementation of epics does not use the 'Epic/Theme' field at all, its value is ignored

Detail View is now closable

If you prefer to use the full screen-width to see your cards, you can now close the Detail View in Plan mode (you always could in Work mode):

(tick) Tip: You can use the "t" shortcut to toggle between hiding/showing the Detail View.

More customisation of Issue Detail View

In GreenHopper 6.0.3 we introduced the ability to add text-fields to your cards. Building on this, you can now also add numeric fields (e.g. Business Value).

See Configuring the Issue Detail View.

Count of Visible Issues Shown in Column Header on Work Mode

When a Quick Filter is active, the count of visible issues is now shown in the header of Work mode. Note that you need to enable 'Issue Count' as the Column Constraint in the configuration of the board for the issue counts to appear in the column header.
