What is the standard guidelines for activity creation?
In our team, all team members are creating activities by their own.
It is not being assigned by team leader. Is it possible to create an activity by team leader then assign it to members?
How to achieve it?
Two ways you could go.
ClearCase (stand alone):
A trigger can enforce, the activity or the naming of the activity but this can require intial development of trigger and script & also the maitenance. You may also go part way in which you enforce the prefix to be ENH_* or DEF_* or CR_*. You can even check to see if total activity is in a list of strings you specify…limited to your need.
Alternative (ClearCase with integration):
What you may be looking for is a higher level order, I had created such a system with ClearCase integrated to ClearQuest. Developers are assigned “WorkRequests” (e.g. Defects / Enhancements) These can be directly assigned, tracked and added to builds.
In essence you use the record ID acts node that holds all activities checked in by developer. You can report/slice/dice with activitis and checkin refs as you want)
In this model you control the assigned record not the activity (but they can be the same! ie. raised records with known activties in advance and assign them.)
