Using trac to enforce iteration cycles...

Does anyone know of a plugin for trac (or a way) where the tickets
associated with a milestone are automagically closed when the
milestone finishes?

Thanks!

I use the "move open tickets to milestoneX" feature when I "complete"
a milestone.

I suppose if you wanted to close them out of hand like that (as
opposed to move them back into the backlog), you could create a
special milestone, when you close a milestone, move all tickets to
milestone:CloseAllThese or whatever. Then use the BatchModifyTickets
plugin, and list all tickets in that milestone in a query (ungrouped)
and just check the box up at the top, which will select all tickets,
and change state to closed, and resolution to (whatever you use for
iteration tickets that just get batch closed)

It makes it a 2 step process, but the second step is pretty simple.

Where is this feature? I have Trac 0.11.2.1 and can't see that
immediately. Sounds useful!

From the Roadmap, click on the milestone in question. click "Edit
Milestone" There is a check box for "Completed" which enables a check
box to "retarget associated open tickets to milestone":

For some reason, this option isn't there if you navigate there via the
Admin page. BatchModifyPlugin is available at trac haks. It is
handy, while we don't use iterations, we use a feature branch
development model, and each "feature branch" get's its own milestone.
anything that doesn't make it in, gets moved back to our "TBD" bucket.

One important note, if you use a custom workflow with special states,
be sure to set the ini setting for which states are considered
"closed" or anything not actually in the "closed" state will be
moved (we have a few "closed" states called other things, for
exampled: Merged)
