What's New – June 30, 2013
The following features were introduced or enhanced in Agile Manager:
Storyboard
Manage the flow of backlog items through their development stages with a fully interactive and configurable storyboard.
- Set the storyboard mode. Select whether to use the storyboard in Scrum Mode within the context of a sprint, or in Kanban Mode, unbound from the sprint cycles. This setting applies to all teams in a release.
- Customize the storyboard to match your team's work process.
- Manage work items on the storyboard. Drag items from lane to lane, while keeping within the time and WIP limits.
- Analyze storyboard metrics. On the Dashboard, select purpose-designed widgets from the Kanban category.
For full details, see Kanban storyboard.
Application Access Settings
- Set user access permissions to selected applications.
- Users can view only features and backlog items associated with the applications to which they have access.
