Kendall Nelson 49d4861081 Update Task Tracking Exercises
We still occasionally hit the race condition where when a story is
created with multiple tasks there is a deadlock. To avoid hitting this
in the upstream training, let us have the students make stories with
one task.

This patch also adds clarifying phrasing to the other exercies in the
task tracking section.

Learning Exercise

  • Open the Task Tracking section of the Contributor Guide
  • Read the material
  • Ask the mentors questions
  • Get ready to go through the exercises

Exercise 1

Create and submit a bug to our sandbox repository. Include at least one tag when creating your bug. Once it has been created, assign it to yourself.

You will use this later when we practice writing commit messages and pushing patches to the sandbox repo so make it interesting!

Exercise 2

Create and register a blueprint against the sandbox repository. Include a description and assign yourself.

You will use this later when we practice writing commit messages and pushing patches to the sandbox repo so make it interesting!

Exercise 3

Go post comments on a bug or add some ideas on a blueprint's whiteboard that was created by someone in your group.

Examples: You can ask a question about the issue or proposed feature. You can confirm the issue and update its status to triaged.

Exercise 4

Create a board with at least two worklists (one manual and one automatic) for organizing stories you are going to create in the next exercise.

For the automatic worklist, give at least two criteria for the items that will go into the worklist. These criteria can be matching a project-group, story tag, etc.

Exercise 5

Create three stories for your worklists. At least one of them should meet the criteria that enables it to appear in your automatic worklist. Each story must have a task that is named differently than the story name.

You will use these later when we practice writing commit messages and pushing patches to the sandbox repo so make them interesting!

Exercise 6

Share your board with your group. Assign yourself to two tasks on other people's stories. Comment on one story.
