First EAP for JetBrains Issue Tracker

Elizaveta Revyakina — Thu, 21 May 2009 17:33:14 +0000

Our in-house issue tracker code-named Charisma that we have blogged about before is from now on publicly available!

The very first Charisma Early Access Program has started — you can now download the tracker and try it out on your own server (see installation instructions for details).

Of course, the version that you use to report TeamCity issues has also been updated, and seems to be cleaner than before. By the way, have you read useful tips and watched Charisma demos on its Welcome page (under the ‘Hints’ tab)?

While the EAP is a big step forward, we still have a long way to go towards beta, and we encourage you to report any bugs that you may encounter, or make feature requests — you can do both here.

Start investigating the new JetBrains product in your own environment, and help us make it better every day!

TeamCity Issue Tracker Upgrade

Ekaterina — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 14:04:04 +0000

As you probably know, it’s been about a year now since TeamCity migrated from Jira to an in-house issue tracker, code-named Charisma.

Those of you who have ever posted any requests to our tracker have probably got used to its features and GUI. However, one year is a heck of long time, and of course Charisma did evolve since then. The time for change has come, and a week ago the brand new UI has been pushed to www.jetbrains.net/tracker, and now you can try it yourself. The old-timey UI (aka “workspace”) will be abandoned soon.
So head to your profile (”Settings” tab) in the tracker and select “Use New UI”. You will then be redirected to the new UI URL: www.jetbrains.net/tracker/issues.

You can still reach the old UI at www.jetbrains.net/tracker/oldWorkspace, but if you ever need it — let us know why. We are eagerly waiting for your feedback: we’d like to improve the new UI so that you feel comfortable using it, before we drop the old one for good.

Please, don’t hesitate to share your opinion, ideas and suggestions with us in TeamCity community. If you have found a bug, post the issue right into Charisma.

We wish you happy building with TeamCity and hope to hear from you soon!
