    Description

      Currently the plugin only allows claiming a build or test for yourself. It would be very helpful to also allow assigning a build to another user. For example, when working on a team of a few people, only one of us needs to check unstable builds and then assign out builds/tests to the team members.

      I've attached a patch with an initial implementation. It adds "assign" and "reassign" buttons on the UI, bringing up the same form but with an extra field for the target username. An email is sent to the assignee when he is not the user claiming the build for himself.

            A patch was attached in October 2010. It's now December 2013 and no replies have come after the patch. Is there anything we can do to push progress forward here?

            I want this as well and am picking this up as back-burner project. I've taken the original 2010 patch, simplified it and "rebased" it onto the current master branch. It's actually almost nothing so there's a lot required to productionise this - it will take a few weeks before I submit anything back.

            Hi Marc,

            We're interested in this too, and the branch you've put together looks great and seems to cover everything we would want. Can I help in any way to assist in completing this?

            Having put this into use in my organisation there are two outstanding issues. Very much in descending order:
            1. autofill for the assignee box. This is generally quite easy but I don't know how to register a Descriptor for this type of class. Probably need to seek advice more actively as I'm sure those who know will understand immediately.
            2. "assigned to XXX" (no one likes finding their name on something they were not told about). Option A: Add an assignedBy property to the Action and add an optional rewording of the ui text. Option B: Just change "this build was claimed by" to "this build is assigned to" which covers all cases but drops the word "claim" from the claim plugin

            ping me on GH and I'll give you write access to my fork if you feel like chasing up those two items with the developer mailing list.

            This is so important in organizations that aren't agile.

            I noticed that 2.4 isn't available in my Jenkins instance, any idea when it will be available?

            This has been rolled out and is fantastic!

            For some reason, no email is sent when assigning to someone else. Is there some configuration I'm missing for this feature? If not I will open an issue.

            Whether emails are sent or not is configurable:
            Go to Manage Jenkins->Configure System, then look for the 'Claim' section. There should be a check-box there "Send emails when assigning/claiming builds".

            This was added to allow preservation of the previous behaviour, which is that no mail is sent if someone claimed a build failure.

            Yes, thanks, it truly is.
