A new release is out is this one brings the Comms experience on Stomio to the next level. Here is how you can effectively communicate with your testers using Stomio.

New Features

1- Public Tickets

Sometimes you want to share a ticket with your tester community so you can bring awareness to a known issue or have testers help each other out. Now you can convert a private ticket to a public one with a single click and control if you want to allow comments in that ticket or not.

Improvements

1- Comms experience overhaul

We overhauled the entire experience for the Comms page. Tickets are now easier to navigate and filter. Discussions inside tickets happen more naturally. Action items on each ticket are simple and easy to find.

2- Rich Text in Comms

Rich text is very powerful to drive a point home. Now it’s available in your tickets so you can Bold, Italicize, underline, bullet point, number list, code, link anything anywhere in Stomio!


3- Tester Onboarding Flow

We improved our onboarding flow for testers to make it much quicker for them to get into your beta and start executing on those tasks.

4- Jira Integration Default Fields

We improved our Jira integration setup by adding default fields. This allows the admin to configure a certain field in Jira to be always populated with a specific value if the ticket is pushed from Stomio to Jira.


5- Increased character limit for text feedback steps from 300 to 1024 characters

If your testers want to share their mind with you in a feedback step, they now have 3x the space to do so!
