It is highly recommended to test your Jira expression before publishing the workflow.
To test an expression simply select an existing issue and click on Evaluate.
As a result, you might encounter the following four responses :
The value returned by the expression
In order to deal as a condition, the Jira expression expects the return of a boolean true or false. When developing the expression used as a condition it may help to evaluate intermediate results that do not return a boolean value.
In this use case, "Task" will be returned as the current issue type's name.
When storing this expression as it is, the condition evaluates to false, since with Jira's expressions any non-boolean value will be considered as false.
True
This response indicates that the expression itself is valid and the test issue (KANBAN-1) is in a status called "To Do"
False
This response indicates that the expression itself is valid but the test issue (KANBAN-1) is NOT in a status called "ToDo"
Error
There is a syntax error in the specified expression. In this case a missing ' at the end of the expression.
