VS-139

"Pending Tasks" field refreshes too slowly after route withdrawal.

The Pending Tasks field in qTest and Jira is not immediately updated when the record is approved or rejected in VERA.  The cached values are updated when the user invokes a browser refresh,

VS-163

Rejection Reason can be submitted with only a space (no text) entered

Rejection Reason can be submitted with only a space (no text) entered. 

VS-447

User Administrator role can see Signature Verification Failure Report and Re-verify

A User Administrator can access the Signature Verification reporting section of the Administration Portal.  This feature should be limited to System Administrators.

VS-668

Sorting shows all values beginning with a capital letter before lowercase values

When sorting data (users, records, etc.) alphabetically, the system erroneously alphabetizes capital letters independently from lower-case letters.  For example:  Apple, Cat, ball -- instead of: Apple, ball, Cat

VS-692

JSON Attachment download returns 500 error

A Jira issue had the approval policy.json file attached; an error was displayed when downloading the attachment.

VS-698

VERA cannot create a qTest record if two fields in the record have the same name

The VERA-qTest integration does not support importing records from qTest where the record has two fields with the same name.  If such a record is routed for approval from qTest, then an error will occur.

VS-700

User sees duplicate approval tasks for the same record in approval queue

If an approval route contains two pending tasks for the same role (e.g. two Technical approvals) then an eligible approver will see both tasks in their queue.

VS-962

Approval Queue user filter uses RegEx can match different users

Due to regular expression matching, a record that has been signed by one user may cause another user's approval queue to exclude the record when it should be available.

VS-988

VERA DevOps does not apply a default approval route

If a record is routed for approval that does not satisfy any configured route templates, the user will see "VERA is trying to start the approval route" rather than a descriptive error containing the reason why the route was not started.

VS-1060

If user has a null value for a role in their claims list the user module fails to add or remove them from a role

If a user has a claim that has a type of role and a value of null (not just a blank string), the user module will throw an exception when trying to add or remove the user from a role.

VS-1065

A misleading error message is displayed when VERA cannot apply a final approval

VERA will display a misleading error message when it fails to transition a Jira issue in the workflow.  The error message displayed to the user will indicate that there is a connectivity problem, even if it's actually a configuration problem. 

VS-1243

Invalid Approval Group error log should indicate with group or line number the error is on

Currently error log does not display approval group details when invalid approval group is logged. 

VS-1277

VERA returns an HTTP 500 status code to Jira webhooks when it cannot access the Sync ID field

With Jira Cloud, the HTTP 500 status code will prompt Jira to retry the same webhook a few minutes later.  This is undesirable, because a) there is no reasonable expectation that it will succeed, and b) the user will have very likely tried rerouting the record again anyway.

Therefore, the Jira module should return a different status code that will not trigger a retry from Jira Cloud.

VS-1278

VERA does not handle concurrent start route requests for the same record

The VERA API does not have proper handling for concurrent start approval route requests for the same record.  If it is a new record, then the end result could be the record receiving two different Sync IDs each with its own approval route.

VS-1293

Final approval fails when Jira projects are configured with a Signatures field

VERA will attempt to write the entire approval route to the Jira Signatures field if the field is present in the Jira project. If the approval route contains over 255 characters the Approval will fail since VERA is attempting to write over 255 characters to the field.

VS-1303

Jira and qTest Modules use the Server property from the Sync Policy as the Base URL

The Jira and qTest modules both use the Server property for a location for the baseurl when connecting to Jira or qTest. This is normally fine, but can cause an issue where a client has a gateway or proxy in between VERA and their Jira/qTest servers. Modules should use the API Server url defined in the policy file.

VS-1391

Revision is blank in qTest Run Record Details for History entries

The Revision field is blank for qTest Test Run records in the Record Details for a History entry.

VS-1419

Routing records for approval - errors in logs

In the users module, when GET /users/{userId} endpoint is being called with a userId different from the request owner's userId, then users module responses with 403 Forbidden status code.

VS-1591

Password content can break qTest integration

Using a colon character (":") in the qTest Service Account password causes the qTest integration to fail. The colon character (":") is not supported and should not be used in service account passwords.
