IntelliJ IDEA Switches to JetBrains YouTrack
After a brief test-drive, IntelliJ IDEA has migrated its bugs and feature requests from JIRA to YouTrack, the new bug and issue tracker from JetBrains announced a few weeks ago.
As usual, you can report IntelliJ IDEA bugs or feature requests to IDEA: Feedback, with two more projects available to view and comment: IDEA: Backlog and IDEA: Development.
YouTrack, currently in 1.0 Beta stage, provides the following advantages over competition:
- Keyboard-centric approach lets you use easy shortcuts for major operations, including creating, modifying, and searching for issues. (Read more.)
- Query-based search with intelligent query completion helps you find (and save) any set of issues in seconds, across projects. (Read more.)
- Powerful commands enable you to batch-modify multiple selected issues, including fixing, specifying priority, types, writing comments etc. (Read more.)
The following resources should help you get used to YouTrack:
YouTrack is also used to track issues in other JetBrains products, including TeamCity, dotTrace, MPS, and Web IDE.
You can download YouTrack beta as a JAR or WAR distribution, and try it out in your own environment.
YouTrack 1.0 final release is scheduled for autumn. Watch YouTrack blog for latest news and tips.
