Default tasks for Pull Requests

XMLWordPrintable

    • Our product teams collect and evaluate feedback from a number of different sources. To learn more about how we use customer feedback in the planning process, check out our new feature policy.

      As with Default Reviewers, having a list of Default Tasks for newly created Pull Requests would be amazing. Being able to specify these per target branch pattern would also be wonderful - similar to how Branch permissions are defined per target branch.

      I've found other people also requesting this feature and they sum it up very nicely:

      (From https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Bitbucket-questions/Default-Tasks-for-new-PRs/qaq-p/1265772)

      I'd like to configure default tasks per-repository that are added to all new PRs. 

      Use case: add tasks "QA tested" and "UX reviewed" that need to be checked off before the PR can be merged to remind devs to do these things. We do not want to require approvals by specific people/roles, just tasks for reminding the devs because any dev is allowed to QA test.

      There is a plugin for this, but it's quite buggy and overpriced for what it is (even though, yes we are saying we would pay a little more to have it in the core product).

      Thank you for your time!

            While Bitbucket Cloud now supports default tasks for pull requests,
            Checklist Buddy for Bitbucket gives you additional flexibility and more control:

            • add different tasks based on the source/destination branch of the PR: e.g., different default tasks when you merge to a release branch compared to develop branch
            • add different tasks based on the PR content: e.g., have different default tasks when PR contains React files with file patterns like app/*.jsx
            • complete checklists instead of just simple tasks to have structured checklists
            • configuration as code: review your default task configuration within pull requests, see who has changed what for audit purposes, etc.

            Try it out and Let us know what you think.

            We are happy to announce that our app Checklist Buddy for Bitbucket is now also available for Bitbucket Cloud.

            You get:

            • contextual default tasks based on the PR diff (e.g., if there UI changes, add PR tasks to test in various browsers)
            • different default tasks based on the source and destination branch of the PR
            • or even complete checklists

            Still something missing for you?
            Let us know, we are happy to improve the app based on your feedback.
