From your requirements analysis and design, plan for the completion of work for a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) of the service.

From our requirements, we figured out that our main tasks were to:

  1. Send an email with the invoice

  2. Create a communication report

  3. Be able to send to multiple recipients

We decided our MVP was to be able to send an invoice to the recipient via email.

We made these as our epics, and mapped them out on our roadmap/gantt chart, with communication report and multiple recipients being further down the timeline. This reflects our priorities and the fact that epics 2 and 3 cannot be completed unless there is significant progress in epic 1.

The breakdown of tasks is up to you as a team, however you should (a) ensure that tasks are broken down at a technical level and not just a product level, and (b) document your logic behind the breakdown of tasks.

Using Jira, you will need to:

  • Create a sprint that details all of the work up until the end of Sprint 2;

  • Create tickets / work items for each task;

  • Appropriately group tickets together under epics;

  • Where needed, split tickets down into subtasks;

  • Allocate assignees and reporters to each ticket;

  • Allocate Story Points to each ticket;

  • Allocate Priorities to each ticket;

  • Sequence the tickets appropriately in the backlog; and

  • Highlight dependencies and prerequisites between tasks as needed.

Document any important reasoning that occurs as part of this process

  • Do tickets correspond to logical segmentations of work?

  • Are the tickets written at a technical level of abstraction?

  • Have individuals been logically assigned to tasks?

  • Are task allocations approximately equal?

  • Have dependencies and prerequisites between tasks been highlighted?

  • Have story points been logically allocated to tasks according to a specified structure?

  • Have tasks been appropriately broken up into sub-tasks?

  • Have priorities been logically allocated to tasks?

  • Is the backlog sequenced logically?

  • Have tickets been logically grouped under epics?

  • Does the plan provide a complete layout of the next sprint of work?

  • No labels
