Using formats other than As a....

Colm O'hEocha fa 9 anys updated by Matthew O'Riordan (Founder) fa 9 anys 1
User Stories are about telling stories of how the system will be used, how it will add value - its the telling and conversation thats important, not the writing. This tool seems to force the 'As a <role>' type format on the description - would be great if this could be changed to free format to suit situations where this format isn't applicable/desired. Not everything on a product backlog can best be described in terms of a user story (e.g. we need to upgrade to the latest database before the vendor stops supporting our old version...).
Love the simplicity and speed of this tool - the first I've come across that can be used in a group setting without slowing everything down...

Deleting Backlog

Cie Studios fa 12 anys updated by Matthew O'Riordan (Founder) fa 12 anys 1

I accidently entered a second backlog for the same project, and I can't find a way to delete it. 

Answer

Hi there


To delete a backlog, I admit could be deemed a bit cryptic, but follows a reasonably standard user experience from other web applications which is to keep less used features in the settings section.  


To delete a backlog, simply go to the backlog, click Settings, and Delete is available on the right hand side.


Thanks,

Backlog group by theme or absolute priority.

dgaruccio fa 11 anys updated by Matthew O'Riordan (Founder) fa 11 anys 2
I love the ability to view the backlog by theme. During sprint plannings meeting however, it is difficult to determine the absolute priority. It would be nice if there was an option whether or not group by theme (or another view) to make prioritizing and work selection during sprint planning easier.  Currently we have to print all cards and to it on the table, then update the site.
Answer
We know this is an issue and will do something to resolve this.  Out of interest, would you be willing to pay for access to easyBacklog as we are struggling to justify the time on this project building new features when we provide this service for free?

allow to color all stories in a sprint

Michael Terkowski fa 13 anys updated by Matthew O'Riordan (Founder) fa 13 anys 4
As a product owner I want to be able to differnitate between stories in the sprint and other backlog stories, so I know what is being worked on while I am grooming the backlog.

Couple of ideas: create a filter that colors all stories in progress, or have "change color" icons in the sprint tab (for a single or all stories in that sprint)

Thoughts?

We are working in more than one project at the same time, as a Scrum Master I would like to have one report with the full overview  of all projects (or backlogs), So I can check the performance (qty sprint, qty stories, velocity, remain stories to complete) and take an action.

Releases and Themes.

Sergi Casbas fa 12 anys updated by Matthew O'Riordan (Founder) fa 12 anys 0

To manage large projects a kind of releases or milestones will be usefull, since themes don't fit to this behavior. Be desireable if the reports add some stats about them. For example statistics could be filtered by all backlog or only for next release. Anyway themes will be reconverted in more easly only adding filters in stats. 

Answer

We are considering support for releases, however at present we don't have this in our backlog of features to be added as we are not sure it is needed for most users.  However, thanks for the feedback as it helps us to understand what people need.  We will see if we can find a solution.


FYI, there is a related discussion at http://easybacklog.userecho.com/topic/93801-it-woudl-be-good-to-have-a-release-version-field/
