Using a Sample Project

Sample projects use default templates that include work items and processes preset in CodeArts Req. After you select a sample project, the corresponding sample template project is automatically generated for your reference. The work items and code preset in the sample project can be directly used.

Prerequisites

Before creating a CodeArts project, you must have permission to create a project.

If the Create Project button is not displayed on the homepage, you do not have permission to create projects. In this case, contact the administrator to obtain the permission. For details about how to grant the project creator permission to users, see Configuring a CodeArts Project Creator.

Creating a CodeArts Project Using a Sample Project

Click Create Project on the service homepage.

On the Select Template page, select a sample project to create a project. Table 1 lists the supported sample projects.

**Table 1** Sample projects
Project Type	Project Name	Application Scenario
Scrum	DevOps Full-Process	Agile development and DevOps continuous delivery through an automated E2E process. The templates have preset mind maps and instantiated Scrum work items (promotion, member, and order management), code repositories, code check tasks, build tasks, and pipeline tasks.
IPD	IPD-System Device	Complex products with embedded software that evolves with hardware. Examples: communications devices, automobiles, home appliances, and consumer electronics.
	IPD-Standalone Software	IT application and platform software with standardized hardware or independent of dedicated hardware. Examples: ERP software, CRM, databases, and network management software.
	IPD-Self-Operated Software/Cloud Service	Cloud service development, microservice architecture, and self-operated software scenarios, such as public cloud and Internet application software.

Select a sample project. On the Create Project page, set related parameters.

**Table 2** Creating a project
Parameter	Description
Work Item Template	A work item template contains all configuration items of a Scrum project, except those in Work Item > Statuses and Transitions > Automation > Change Handler. You can select a template as required to quickly reuse the work item configuration data of the project. In addition to the default Scrum template of the system, you can customize a work item template. To customize a work item setting template, open a project, go to the Settings > Work Item page, and save the custom template. NOTE: Work Item Template is available only for Scrum projects.
Name	Set this parameter as required. The name of projects under the same tenant must be unique. Enter only letters, digits, and underscores (_) with a maximum of 128 characters.
