- 4. Components of TFS Web Access
- 5. The Backlog Page • Shows Product and Sprint Backlogs • Easy to Add • Drag and drop • Highly Customizable • Priority field to persist the order
- 6. The (Sprint) Backlog Page • Shows forecasted PBIs & Bugs and linked tasks • What’s not important: Capacity, work by Activity & Assigned To
- 7. The PBI Work Item Type
- 8. The Task Work Item Type • Small enough to be completed in one day • Estimated in hours • Update only remaining hours • Avoid using the Activity field – All activities are “development”
- 9. The Bug Work Item Type • A bug work item is the report of a bug in the product • Similar to a PBI Tip: Prefix the bug with “Bug:” So they are identifiable in the Product Backlog
- 10. Sprint Burndown • Shows everyday progress in a chart format
