Hands-On Agile Software Development with JIRA

By: David Harned

Overview of this book

As teams scale in size, project management can get very complicated. One of the best tools to deal with this kind of problem is JIRA. This book will start by organizing your project requirements and the principles of Agile development to get you started. You will then be introduced to set up a JIRA account and the JIRA ecosystem to help you implement a dashboard for your team's work and issues. You will learn how to manage any issues and bugs that might emerge in the development stage. Going ahead, the book will help you build reports and use them to plan the releases based on the study of the reports. Towards the end, you will come across working with the gathered data and create a dashboard that helps you track the project's development.

Summary

That brings us to the end of this chapter. In this chapter, you learned about versions and releases; what information release and epic burndown reports have, and how to read them; what a sprint report is; the data that's inside of a sprint report, and how to read it. You also saw what a velocity report looks like and why it's important for planning future sprints. We covered what version and epic reports are, and how to read them; we discussed the version and epic reports, and used them to provide forecasts for when a version will be completed.

In the next chapter, we'll discuss searching and filtering.
