What does this MR do and why?

This MR changes the GraphQL mutations to update issues and merge requests to also allow users to set time estimate 🙂

How to set up and validate locally

Preface:

  • time estimate is expressed using "human readable" format, just like on the /estimate quick action
  • passing a zero-based time estimate (eg 0h) will reset the time estimate (to 0)

Find a merge request on a project and use this mutation to change its time estimate:

mutation {
  mergeRequestUpdate(input: {
    projectPath: "<project full path>",
    iid: "<merge request id>",
    timeEstimate: "<time estimate>"
  }) {
    mergeRequest {
      timeEstimate
    }
  }
}

Find an issue on a project and use this mutation to change its time estimate:

mutation {
  updateIssue(input: {
    projectPath: "<project full path>",
    iid: "<issue id>",
    timeEstimate: "<time estimate>"
  }) {
    issue {
      timeEstimate
    }
  }
}

Make sure that:

  • the time estimate was changed
  • a system note was created
