In an Agile organization, product backlog items are typically written as user stories — though they don’t always need to be. They can also be written as traditional requirements documents, or in a number of other ways. When written as user stories, product backlog items often take the fo...
In addition to the product backlog, an agile team typically creates a backlog specifically for each development iteration, known as aniteration backlogorsprint backlog. The items in a sprint backlog are drawn from the product backlog. Those items should be consideredsprint ready. ...
In agile projects we are supposed to keep everything we will do in our backlogs. The things we keep in there we call backlog items. With the help of releases, iterations, epics and stories we structure them into a work breakdown structure (WBS). Are backlogs enough to cover the complexit...
Take those friction points and make them backlogged items whilegrouping and categorizingthem properly. Listuser stories, feature requests, new features, customer feedback, and bugs in the backlog. 3. Reprioritize backlogged items Reprioritization centers backlog items around customer value, with items...
Product backlog in Agile is a dynamic, living document, with tasks prioritized by the product owner to focus on high-value product backlog items. This flexibility is often paired with frameworks like Kanban, where updates occur continuously without strict sprint cycles. In contrast, within the ...
Every item listed in the backlog should add value to the product. Re-evaluate your backlog frequently. Check that every user story is still important and relevant. Mark items as complete when the work’s been shipped. Assign story points to indicate the level of effort—rather than estimated...
Backlog grooming is a vital part of Agile methodologies. It's the process of reviewing, refining, and prioritizing items in the product backlog. But what happens when your backlog grooming sessions start to feel like a chore? When they become long, tedious, and unproductive?
A product backlog in Agile is, essentially, a list of items that are “on deck” for the development team. It’s a to-do list of items that need to be completed within a larger product. It’s worth noting that these aren’t items that you’re working on within the two-week sprint...
To get a better understanding of how a product backlog works in practice, let’s look at a few real-world examples. These examples show how different types of work items — like features, bugs, and improvements — get organized and prioritized in an Agile project. Example 1: Developing a...
