Update bug and feature issues sections
Why is this change being made?
Examples
Team member recently got confused over the ~bug
label on a couple of occasions:
Situation | Outcome | Link |
---|---|---|
Alert management list does not allow you to open an alert in the list in a new browser tab | Relabelled from bug to feature | gitlab-org/gitlab#225655 (closed) |
gitlab-org/gitlab#216799 (closed) | ||
When there is too much data for productivity analytics to show performantly, the UI says There is no data available
|
Relabelled from bug to feature | gitlab-org/gitlab#217858 (closed) |
Required approvals do not update on existing MRs when CODEOWNERS file changes | Deciding whether to relabel from bug to feature | gitlab-org/gitlab#11808 |
gitlab-org/gitlab#224636 |
Impact
graph TD
A[MVC is implemented] --> |Some of the feature in MVC is not what the user expected because of how we iterated| B(Issue with `bug` label is created and assigned SLO because of P/S labels)
B --> C1(Perceived decrease in team quality because of increased bugs over time)
B --> C2(Team are disincentivized to iterate because it feels like iteration leads to lots of bugs)
B --> C3(A lot of time spent in the team discussing what is a bug vs a feature)
