PhpStorm - Save different session states for the same project

Without creating a new project for each bug/ticket I have to work in within a project, is it possible to save the open files for each of the different bugs/ticket I am working on.

As a very simple example, I am working on Project Golf and have two bugs. #1 - Add CRUD functionality for Player. #2 - Add CRUD functionality for Course.

Within Bug #1 I am working on files views/players/index.php, views/players/add.php, views/players/edit.php and views/players/view.php

Within Bug #2 I am working on files views/courses/index.php, views/courses/add.php, views/courses/edit.php and views/courses/view.php

I would like to be able to easily switch between bug by opening project Golf > Bug #1 or Golf > bug #2 and open the required files that I am working on. The current functionality for me is that PhpStorm will open whatever files I was last working on within that project. If I switch to a completely new bug with completely different I then need to go and reopen them all again.

Although I could create a new project for each bug, this feels a bit cumbersome and the Project Manager screen would also become very cluttered.

If you are using integration with an Issue Tracking System in PhpStorm then IDE will load your tabs that you had open when last time worked on that particular ticket/task.

Regardless if you use such integration or not -- this functionality is called "Contexts" and you can switch between them using Tools | Tasks & Contexts | Load Context.

More on this in official Help pages: https://www.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/help/switching-between-contexts.html?search=context
