Jama Connect Advisor — Analysis Results Slide-Over Panel for Document View

Embedded Filter Enhancements

The following updates have been made to the embedded filters that you access through the Filter window: 

• Under Create rules, when defining conditions that must be met, you no longer have to add an embedded filter.

• When you open the Add embedded filter window, you see  the following enhancements:
  
  • The Select a Project drop-down menu now includes only the Current Project or All Projects options.

• The button to save the addition of an embedded filter is now disabled until all included conditions are filled out. You can't insert an embedded filter where a field is left blank (see below).

• If you edit a saved embedded filter, a new option allows you to remove it. 

• If an embedded filter contains conditions that are broad in scope, such as searching across All Projects or placing a wildcard in a text field, a new inline alert indicates that performance might be slow when executing the filter.
  
  • If this alert is visible, change the conditions to narrow the scope of the search.

New Review Center Notification Settings

To reduce unwanted email notifications and enhance control of preferred ones, we've made the following updates:

• On the Review Center page, the options for review notifications are now grouped under Approval review notification settings (there must be an organization or process admin to update these settings).
• The wording of the options themselves has been updated for clarity and additional control: 
  
  • "Notify moderators when participants complete reviews."
  • "Notify participants when other participants complete reviews."

• The notification settings options on the Initiate review page are now grouped under Notification settings (the review moderator must see these settings).
• The wording of the options themselves has been updated for clarity and additional control: 
  
  • "Notify moderators when participants complete the review."
  • "Notify participants when other participants complete the review."

• Review participants no longer receive due date reminder emails for any completed review. 

Enhanced Performance for Test Management

The following options have been improved for significantly faster runtimes: 

• Auto-creating test groups by dragging and dropping test cases from the tree to the dotted line container in the test groups page of a plan.
  
  
• Creating a new cycle.
  
  
• Viewing test runs within a cycle (loading the test runs table).
