  11. Test your setup and enjoy: 
    1. go to any issue page,
    2. add a checklist,
    3. complete the checklist (check all items)
    4. transition the issue to some other status than selected in this tutorial
    5. uncomplete checklist (open one item) and wait a moment (Automation needs time to process the data)
    6. Next, refresh the page and notice that issue is in the desired status (e.g.  Open or Backlog In Progress).

Info

Please note that the transition to Open or Backlog must be possible according to the workflow defined in the current project. Otherwise, the transition attempt will fail.
