Quick Add Work Items [8] [2]

[michaelkleinhenz]

Reference: 1608E136

Description

As a user, I want to add work items to the work item list quickly and without hassle.

Functional Acceptance Criteria

1. The user can quick add work items on the work item list view.
2. Work items can be added by filling out a form with a title field and hitting enter or clicking an add button.
3. The Title field is an alphanumeric field.
4. New work items are added at a significant position of the work item list that is instantly recognizable as the new item.
5. The type of the new work item is set to a default value.
6. New work items show up on the work item list instantly.
7. After adding the new work item to the work item list, the user can immediately start entering a new work item.
8. The title field is required. Adding is only allowed when the field is filled in.
9. The user is able to remove text from the input field and clear the field with a reset function.
10. UX implementation as defined by the UX team (Workflow, Visual Design).

Note: the position of new items is described only vague here because depending on the type of UI it might appear in different physical positions. The definition of these is responsibilty of UX.

Note: prior to sprint 122, the reset behaviour was removed.

Non-functional Acceptance Criteria

1. Adding new work items is as quick as enabling the user to continuously write new work items without losing typed input on create delays.
2. There are no page reloads on adding work items.

Is the user able to type in a work item title, and then press the [Return] key to save the work item, or must the user click on the save button? If we want to make this very easy for users, then we should enable them to press the [Return] key.

I think it is important that we provide users with a simple, light-weight, default path through the planner. Users should be able to simply accept defaults to get on board quickly. If we make the initial user experience too process/admin heavy, I think that we will discourage new user adoption.

re: 3. Is there a character limit to the title or description?

re: 4. The design has the new work items adding at the bottom of the list to align with the design and work flow

re: 9 rather than giving UI solutions can we refer to the functionality ie: User should be able to remove text from the input field and clear the field. We have not accounted or designed in direct editing behavior... It would be helpful to route interaction and behavior to discussions around the wireframes for the UI.

@Mgranfie why did you Close this issue?

[michaelkleinhenz]

@ldimaggi Both should be possible.

[michaelkleinhenz]

@Mgranfie
re 3: I left that stuff out intentionally (also on other stories) because I think that UX should decide this :-)
re 4: Ok, I understand. I change this to something more neutral that just indicates it appears on a significant position.
re 9: ok, changed.

Do we disable the quick add input fields (title, description, add button, and reset button) during the addition - that is when the + button is clicked and the updated list is returned from core.

Currently it is instantaneous. Would there be a scenario where it takes a few seconds for the POST request to complete? Do we let the user enter the next work item or wait until the list gets updated?

Including the link to the Wireframes that explain the behaviors for the UI.

@joshuawilson bc Git is hard to use and I had no idea I had done that ... : )

[ldimaggi]

Looking for clarification - Where (at the top or bottom of the list of work items) is a newly created work item displayed by default?

For the 6-month project schedule, will we paginate the list workitems, or display them all on one page?

[naina-verma]

For Title/Description field : Are we planning to display URLs entered by users in tittle/description or as clickable hyperlinks.It would be good stuff to have !

[michaelkleinhenz]

@ldimaggi the position of the new work item might depend on the device you are using. Monica said that in the mobile view it will be at the bottom. I intentionally described that as "significant position". There should/must be a task for UX when decomposing into tasks "UX has to figure out where to put new items and make designs for that". The userstory just says "its directly added and immediately visible that I added something". The exact position is left to the development.

[nimishamukherjee]

@michaelkleinhenz can we remove

1. New work items are set to the highest order of execution and thus get added at a significant position of the work item list that is instantly recognizable as the new item.

as the order of execution story is in the backlog as a draft user story

[michaelkleinhenz]

@nimishamukherjee yes, I'll change that.

@michaelkleinhenz Currently, there is no Reset functionality in the designs (in any area). This relates to (9) in this list.

Per (7) in the list, the Work Item is added to the bottom of the list - Add Work Item

@michaelkleinhenz Updated UX artifacts:
