Agile Practices using Jira Atlassian

The more we meet software development organizations, the more we see how Jira, the most popular ALM tool out there, is being misused.  Abusing the tool is quite easy actually… Paraphrasing Tolstoy’s words from Anna Karenina, “Good Jira implementations are all alike but unhappy implementations are all unhappy in their own way”.

We have seen many cases where the abuse of the tool caused frustrations and inconsistencies with the Agile mindset that put at risk the ability to benefit from Agile practices adopted by the organization.

As we closed the second year of our company we began noticing the problems and costs incurred by the fact that we each worked differently. E.g. miscommunications, differences in outcomes, and rework done between implementations. We decided it was time we go and analyze our past implementations for common goals and methods of operation.

Kanban at Pelephone – Case Study

I will be talking about:

* The problems that we wanted to solve (some are still with us) and how the Kanban mindset helped us define the change and then implement it
