GitLab Issues
GitLab Issues is a project management and issue tracking tool integrated within the GitLab platform, allowing teams to create, assign, prioritize, and track tasks, bugs, and feature requests directly in their GitLab repositories. It provides features like labels, milestones, due dates, and discussions to streamline workflow and collaboration. This tool is essential for managing the software development lifecycle in projects hosted on GitLab.
Developers should use GitLab Issues when working on projects hosted on GitLab to centralize task management, improve team coordination, and maintain traceability between code changes and project requirements. It is particularly useful for agile teams needing to track sprints, manage backlogs, and link issues to merge requests for seamless integration of development and project tracking. Use cases include bug reporting, feature planning, and milestone tracking in collaborative software projects.
