description GitLab Issues Overview
GitLab Issues provides work tracking within the GitLab software development platform. Teams can record bugs, describe planned changes, and discuss implementation details alongside the repositories where the work happens. Labels help classify issues, milestones group work toward a target, and time tracking adds a way to record effort associated with a task. Issue boards present work in columns for a visual view of progress, supporting workflows such as Kanban.
Links between issues and merge requests help connect a reported problem to the code change addressing it. GitLab's broader CI/CD features can then support testing and deployment. The tracker suits teams already using GitLab or seeking fewer separate systems, but it is part of the wider platform rather than something built directly into a pipeline. That shared context is its main distinction from a standalone bug tracker.
