Using Minglyn
- Use Window > Show view > Other, to access a list of available views.
- Expand the tree list named Mylyn, and choose Task Repositories. This brings up the Task Repository View, which allows you to track the list of task repositories you can access.
- Navigate to the Task Repository View, right-click, Add Task Repository.
Adding a task repository will facilitate tracking Tasks, Stories and Bugs from the project management tool (in this
case Mingle). Choose Mingle connector from a list of Mylyn connectors available.

- On the Mingle Repository Settings wizard, specify the project URL (of the project which holds your tasks), and also other related details. Validate and then proceed to finish.
- Once a repository is created, open the Mingle project in your browser and copy the link for the tasks you wish to fetch.
- To fetch Mingle cards in Twist, open the "Task List" view. Right click on the "Task List" view and select New > Query. Provide a good name for the list of tasks and the URL that you copied from the browser. Click Finish once you're done.
- Minglyn will now provide a list of tasks that it fetched from your Mingle project.
- Double click on one of the tasks to open it up in the editor area in Twist. To edit the task, click on the Mingle tab at the bottom.
- Proceed to Link your scenarios with mingle once you're done.
