We often get lot of questions when working at our clients implementing agile (scrum, kanban, xp (extreme programming) so we decided to start a general FAQ page for this as it often is the same across all our clients.
Q1. How do you display hierarchy between Epics, user stories and subtasks in Jira (Greenhopper)?
A. Like with anything in Jira there is always more than 1 way to skin a cat. So there is 3 options for overcoming this.
Option 1:
Within Greenhopper 6 there is a configuration setting that allows you to show epics on the ‘Plan’ view of the agile scrum board. The setting is within
Greenhopper Labs configuration
that allows you to set Epics being visible on a seperate column on ‘Plan’ view of the Scrum board.
This setting is:
Enabling Epics within the agile scrum board on Greenhopper configuration
Option 2:
See the ALMWorks plugin: jira structure plugin
See the ALMWorks pricing for this plugin.
Option 3:
