General Documentation

From the README.TXT

This plug-in aims to provide some very simple support for story point estimation and tracking.

This plugin adds the following fields to Trac Tickets by adding them to the trac.ini file for the site.

ADDITIONAL TICKET FIELDS

Storypoints - Dropdown field listing story point values. The values used

can be customized in the sites trac.ini file if needed. field name: storypoints

Date Completed - A text field to enter the date a ticked is completed.

Format must be mm/dd/YYYY. See notes below for adding a plugin for a calander widget to this field. fieldname: completed

User Story - A text field to enter in a keyword to associate this with a

particular user story. fieldname: userstory

CHANGES TO TRAC REPORTS

This plugin deactivates the legacy trac reports system in favor of the new ticket query system. This allows custom querying of tickets and ticket fields so the additional ticket fields can be easily displayed.

See ​http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracReports for more Information on Trac Reports versus Trac Query module.

IMPROVED TRAC TICKET QUERY WIKI MACROS

This plugin provides improved Trac Ticket Query Wiki Macros as well as additional formats for the query. It it important to understand this behaves just like normal Track Ticket Queries with some additional options.

For More information o Trac Ticket Query Wiki Macros see ​http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracQuery

To use the expanded TICKET QUERY macros use SpTicketQuery instead of TickeyQuery

ADDITIONAL FEATURES OF SpTicketQuery

In standard TicketQuery macros you can add additional column to table format by specifying a col attribute. This plugin extends that to list format as well, appending additional fields as annotations at the end of the summary.

For example:

[[SpTicketQuery(milestone=User Dashboard, format=list,col=id|summary|storypoints|completed)]]

SpTicketQuery also provides several new formats for the ticket query, related to story point reporting.

These additional formats are:

• format=total - Returns the total story points for all tickets in the query.

• format=completed - Returns the total story points of all closed tickets in a query.

• format=remaining - Returns the total story points of all non-closed tickets in a query.

• format=storypoints - Returns a string summarizing total, completed and remaining story

points for all tickets in a query. example: 16.0 Total Story Points with 13.0 Completed and 3.0 Remaining.

INSTALLATION

Trac plugins are installed as python eggs and this plugin requires no special installation. See ​http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracPlugins for more information.

In a nutshell just upload and activate the python egg via your trac sites admin > plugins page. Alternatively running easy_install on the egg file to install the plugin and make it available for all sites in a trac multi- site installation.

If you are installing from source just checkout the source and run 'python setup.py bdist_egg' to create an egg file. You can locate the resulting egg file from the output of the bdist buffer.

UNINSTALLING

Decativate the plugin in the admin section for your individual site. Then modify site site trac.ini file to remove custom fileds added by the plugin under the [ticket-custom] section.

The lines to remove should look something like this:

completed = text completed.label = Date Completed completed.order = 9110 storypoints = select storypoints.label = Storypoints storypoints.options = |0|0.5|1|2|3|5|8|13|21|34|55 storypoints.order = 9100 userstory = text userstory.label = User Story userstory.order = 9120
