Issue boards are a tool that helps you track and manage your issues in a streamlined manner. There are two types of boards in Tracker:
-
Basic boards can be used by any teams and allow arranging issues in columns based on their status. Creating a basic board.
-
Boards with a Backlog and sprints are good for Agile teams and allow managing sprints, estimating issue complexity, and analyzing burn down charts. Creating a board with a backlog and sprints.
How to work with boards
The number of issues on boards is limited, so we recommend that you follow these guidelines:
- Only add issues to a board that you plan to complete in the near future (such as in the next six months).
- To avoid overloading issue boards, configure automatic issue removal so that issues in a specific status are removed from the board automatically.
- To analyze closed issues that have been removed from the board, use the search issues
page or, if you are using a board with a Backlog and sprints, you will see a link to a filter with a completed sprint's issues in the Backlog tab. - To work with all of your issues (for example, to perform their general analysis through filtering or sorting), use queues: do not try to add all the issues to one board.
