A Windows desktop tool for recording time spent on different Jira tasks.
- Switch time tracking between issues with just one click
- Configure how many time-tracking slots you want available
- Time can be manually edited (eg. if you forgot to start the timer when starting work)
- Optionally pause timer when locking your PC
- Select issue keys from a list based on one of your favorite JQL filters or type it manually
- Displays issue description when key has been selected or entered manually
- Post spent time into Jira as a worklog with comments
- Jira issue keys are saved on program exit
- Optionally remember login credentials
- Optionally save time-tracking state, so your stopwatch continue to "run" even if you need to quit the program (e.g. you need to reboot, but still want to keep on recording time)
Feature-requests are more than welcome :-)

After install, start the application and click the settings icon (gears icon). Enter the real base URL for your Jira server and press OK. Then click on the padlock to login to Jira.
Now you can either write Jira issue id's manually into the the textbox. Or you can choose one of your favorite JQL filters in the drop-down list in the bottom of the windows, and afterwards select Jia issues from drop-down lists.
Press the green PLAY button next to the issue, that you want to work on. The time-tracking textbox will now turn green, and after the first minute has passed, the time elapsed will change from "0m" to "1m".
If you press PLAY on another task, the previous timer will automatically pause.
The button to the right of the time box lets you post the time directly on Jira as a worklog along with a comment. If the posting is successful, the timer will automatically reset, otherwise the timer will not be changed.
The rightmost button on each row reset the timer to 0m.
That's pretty much it!

1.6.1 2016-04-18 Changed filter- and issue-loading from Jira API, to only happen
when comboboxes are opened, instead of every 30 seconds as before.
1.6.0 2016-04-09 New features:
- Allow multiple timers to run at the same time
- Choose if worklog text should be posted on worklog track or
comment track
- Display total time in bottom of window

Refactoring of internal Jira communication (including NUnit
test-coverage)
1.5.0 2016-02-07 Option for pausing timer when locking your PC
(eg. for lunch breaks)
Application can now be minimized to the system tray
Several bugfixes - for details see the commit history
1.4.1 2016-01-02 Added About dialog
1.4.0 2015-12-25 Worklog comments can now be saved without posting to Jira immediately. Useful
if your task takes a long time and you want to note down your progress while
waiting to submit the worklog until the end.
New option to enable timers to be editable. Useful if you forgot to start the
timer when starting work. Times can be entered both Jira style like 1h 15m and
the "classic" way like 1.25h.
Thanks goes to [Seth Feldkamp](https://github.com/sfeldkamp) for the ideas to
both features and for testing.
