This page contains the description of the most common statuses used for issues/cases on this issue tracker. Note that each description has an html anchor assigned so that you can directly refer to it with a link.
Work Needed Statuses
The Work Needed status describes unfinished cases. This is the default status for new cases.
Work Needed (Conclusion)
This status is set after there was some discussion about how to resolve the issue, but no definitive conclusion was reached. Cases that stay for too long in this status will be considered obsolete.
| Set by: | anyone |
| Next steps: | decision |
Work Needed (Not Reproducible)
The reported case is not precise enough or can not be reproduced. Try submitting a test case that exposes the problem. Cases that stay for too long in this status will be considered obsolete.
| Set by: | integrator |
| Next steps: | more precise problem statement |
Work Needed (Failing Test)
The attached source code unintentionally introduces failing tests. Submitting failing tests should be reserved for bug report cases. Usually this status is set after a case was mistakenly set to the Resolved (Fix To Include) or Resolved (Fix Review Needed) status.
| Set by: | integrator or automatic case tester |
| Next steps: | fix submitted code and set case status to Resolved (Fix Review Needed) |
Work Needed (No Sources)
No code for a solution was provided. Usually this happens after a case was mistakenly set to the Resolved (Fix To Include) or Resolved (Fix Review Needed) status, and the integrator or the automatic case tester did not find any attached source code. Sometimes a tricky bug fix requires manual interaction from the integrator without a proper SLICE, only in this case use a noMonkey tag to avoid automatic validation.
| Set by: | integrator or automatic case tester |
| Next steps: | submit fix and set case status to Resolved (Fix Review Needed) |
Work Needed (Code Style Violation)
The provided solution does not adhere to the coding standards of Pharo. Usually this status is set by the automatic issue checker which provides a detailed report on which coding rules were violated.
| Set by: | integrator or automatic case tester |
| Next steps: | improve the fix by addressing the code style violations and set case status to Resolved (Fix Review Needed) |
Work Needed (Merge Conflict)
The provided solution cannot be merged cleanly in the current Pharo version and requires further attention. Usually this status is set by the automatic issue checker. Unless explicitly involved in the fix the integrator cannot easily resolve the conflicts due to possible side-effects.
| Set by: | integrator or automatic case tester |
| Next steps: | manually resolve the merge conflicts and submit a new fix and set case status to Resolved (Fix Review Needed) |
Work Needed (On Hold)
Progress on this case is blocked. Most probably another case needs to be resolved first, and should be added as a sub-case to the one on hold.
| Set by: | anyone |
| Next steps: | wait for resolution of the other case |
Resolved Statuses
Those statuses mean a solution for the case was found.
Resolved (Fix Review Needed)
This is the first status after code or changes have been attached to the case.
| Set by: | code submitter |
| Next steps: | code review |
Resolved (Monkey is checking)
The automatic case tester is currently reviewing the submitted changes. This status is only temporary, and it is preferable to not change the issue in the meantime.
| Set by: | automatic case tester |
| Next steps: | automatic validation result —either of Resolved (Fix Reviewed by the Monkey™), Work Needed (Failing Test), or Work Needed (No Sources). |
Resolved (Fix Reviewed by the Monkey™)
The automatic case tester has validated the submitted sources and found no serious problem. However, the code still needs to be integrated.
| Set by: | automatic case tester |
| Next steps: | manual code review |
Resolved (Fix To Include)
| Set by: | integrator |
| Next steps: | code integration |
Resolved (Fix Integrated)
The submitted changes have been accepted and integrated into the next release.
| Set by: | integrator |
| Next steps: | close issue |
Invalid Statuses
Those statuses mean that the case is closed integrators won't look at the issue anymore.
Resolved (Duplicate)
The same issue is already documented in another case.
| Set by: | integrator and issue reporter |
| Next steps: | work on the original case |
Resolved (Postponed)
That case would ideally be accepted, but it is either of low importance, or out of reach; we don't have resources to look at it in the near future.
| Set by: | integrator |
| Next steps: | none |
Resolved (Won't Fix)
The reported issue interferes with the design directions of the project.
| Set by: | integrator |
| Next steps: | none |
Resolved (Invalid)
| Set by: | integrator |
| Next steps: | none |
