For all user stories and defects that are tagged to a Release, I would like to list all the branches that should be included in the Release. Would like to run this as something simple like as an "Issue Filter" from the JIRA UI Interface. This would be used to ensure we build an appropriate Test Plan and don't accidentally leave out any branches (i.e. User Story 1 has Branch 1 and 2 involved). Is this possible in JIRA?
We use JIRA 7.12 server version.
I can think of two approaches:
1. Use FixVersions
Each Branch has its own FixVersion.
If a JIRA issue needs to be included in 2+ branches (FixVersions), then it needs to be tagged with each FixVersion to which it should be included.
Then you write JQL to query for the FixVersion(s).
2. Use Custom Metadata
Create a field (or fields) which allows you to specify the branch number (i.e. below a master FixVersion)
Then you write JQL which queries for the master FixVersion + specific values assigned to the custom metadata field(s).
