Configure Your Issue Tracker

To enable the issue tracker for your bb101repo, log into Bitbucket and do the following:

  • Navigate to a repository.
  • Click the repository settings button.
    The system displays the Repository details page.
  • Click Issue tracker settings.
    The system opens the issue tracker page. A private issue tracker is visible only to people who have permission to see it. A public tracker anyone can view or create issues.
  • Click Private tracker.
  • Press Save.
    The system enables the Issue menu item for your repository. You will see there are now a number of settings available.

  • Click Components.
    You can use components to group issues within a project into logical groups.
  • Enter a component, for example, Site Design and press Add.
  • Add a Performance component as well.
  • Ignore the Milestones setting.
    A milestone is a subset of a version. It is a point that a development team works towards. Like all settings Milestones is optional. You won't need it for this tutorial so leave it unset.
  • Click Versions and configure the setting by adding a 1.0 value.
    A version helps you schedule and organize your releases and track the release that is affected by a bug.
  • Click Mailing list and configure the setting by adding a back up email for yourself.
    These are email addresses that receive notification when a user creates an issue.
