Description Kilian Matt CLA 2010-06-24 14:11:50 EDT 
Currently there is no method for programmatically assigning a task to another person, instead task repository specific repository names have to be used.
Comment 1 Steffen Pingel CLA 2010-06-24 14:28:05 EDT 
This is currently supported is through setting the value of the corresponding task attribute, i.e. TaskAttribute.USER_ASSIGNED in this case. Could you provide more details on your particular use case for this api? How would you expect the api to work?

Junit Testcase and small bugfix

I've attached a patch with a testcase, which tries to access the Bugzilla specific ASSIGNED_TO attribute and the mapped USER_ASSIGNED attribute. The former suceeds, the later fails.
Also there is a small bugfix for the BugzillaFixture which fixes a NPE for me.
Comment 3 Kilian Matt CLA 2010-06-29 02:51:49 EDT 
Ok I forgot to actually use the mapped attribute, so it works and should be safe to close this bug.
