Auto-assign user if work item is in the nearest unreleased fix version

[Silvia Saric]

Hello,

Is it possible to create an automation that does the following:

When work item is transitioned from "PR created" to "Testing on DEV" - assign the QA if the work item is in the next unreleased fixed version ...

Basically, what I want to achieve is that if a work item is in the nearest upcoming release, then it gets auto-assigned to the QA so he immediately knows his testing priorities.

Thanks in advance,
Silvia

Hi Silvia,

Try this:

@Mehdi Bouazza Is it even possible to have "next unreleased version" as a Value in the condition? Does not seem like it to me.

[John Funk]

No it is not possible. That is why I was asking if it had been tested.

Hello @Silvia Saric 

1. The Trigger (When)

You need to set the automation to start when the status changes:

• Trigger: Work Item Transitioned

• From Status: "PR created"

• To Status: "Testing on DEV"

2. The Condition (If)

• Condition: Work item fields condition

  • Field : Fix version

  • Condition:  Equals

  • Value: next unreleased version

3. The Action (Then)

• Action: Assign the work item

• To: The designated QA User/Role

Hi Mehdi - Have you tested that rule?
