Task boards are an important tool in the Agile process. They help the team to
focus on the work at hand in the current sprint and feed progress data back into the
system, which helps produce the burndown and burnup charts.
Note: The task board is not
a sprint-planning tool; it is more of a sprint-progress tool.
In
the CollabNet Desktop, use the planning
board for planning the stories that will be tackled in the sprint. During the sprint,
team members can use the task board to break down the stories into tasks and then
progress the tasks, and the story, towards completion.
