636831 - Can't self-assign even when selfAssignAllowed is true

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Mozilla QA :: Case Conductor-Platform, defect)

Description

[Carl Meyer (:carljm)]

It appears that assigning a testcase is protected by PERMISSION_TEST_RUN_TEST_CASE_ASSIGN unconditionally, regardless of whether selfAssignAllowed is true for that test run.

I think if selfAssignAllowed is true, a user should be able to assign any testcase in that test run to themselves (but not to any other user), without needing to have PERMISSION_TEST_RUN_TEST_CASE_ASSIGN - because if they had that permission, they could assign anything to anyone, which would not be right.

Added new permission to self assign. Need to run db script_13 before testing.

Comment 2

[Carl Meyer (:carljm)]

Just to clarify, is it intentional here that all roles and users automatically have self-assign permission, with no need to explicitly give it to them? That makes sense if so, just want to confirm that what I'm observing is intended behavior.

Comment 3

Yes, I thought it could be useful to have a list of permissions applied to community at large without explicitly assigning them.
