Status

How do you handle the Status flow ?

For example : waiting for a code review --> Code review done with comments /Code review done without comments ( can be merged ) 

Example 2 : Waiting for Testing --> Tested with Bugs open / tested without bugs opened 

Are you managing different status for each option ( with bugs / without bugs ) ? tested with bugs will be a different status from Tested without bigs for example ?

While you can definitely use more statuses in your workflow to suggest different kinds of 'Code Reviews' and 'Tested' options, if you want to keep your workflow neat, and still segregate the issue based on the type of code review or testing, I would suggest checking out 'Labels' in Jira

Labels provide a high flexibility when it comes to issue search using JQL. Labels will also eliminate the need to have different custom fields or checkboxes for each status and you can simply add the respective labels in a single field.

Using JQL, you can simply search for these issues as such: labels in ("open-bugs", "review-without-comments")

Hi,

This decision depends on the implications of the different statuses. If the subsequent process or workflow changes, it's best to use different statuses. However, if the process remains the same regardless of comments or bugs, you can use a single status like "Code Review Done" or "Tested." Additionally, you can add a custom field (e.g., a checkbox) on the transition screen to specify the details.
