Advance Search for String that Contain Hyphen Returns Result

XMLWordPrintable

      When using Advance Searching, searching for a string that had hyphen in between return result. Expected no result is returned since it is not a complete string (whole word)

      Quote from the documentation for text searching:

      Whole words only

      JIRA cannot search for issues containing parts of words but on whole words only. The exception to this are words which are stemmed.

      This limitation can also be overcome using fuzzy searches.

      Steps to replicate:

      1. Create an issue test-test on summary
      2. Search for "summary ~ test" returned the result test-test created earlier (Not expected)
      3. Create another issue test-test123 on summary
      4. Search for "summary ~ test123" returned no result (Expected)
