Use case
In Jira it is not possible to restrict the creation of issues with specific issue types to certain user/ user groups/ project roles.
In the following use case, we restrict the issue creation to the project roles Developers and Software Tester. Therefore we add the validator to the create transition of the workflow.
In this use case we assume that there is a separate workflow for each issue type in the project.
