AgileBox by DevSamurai Reviews & Insights

It's the era of agile development methodology. And most products are getting developed under agile development cycle. One of the important ceremonies from agile scrum is story estimation, to estimate what complexity a story is supposed to be. And that needs to be estimated unanimously or by a whole team together using Poker and after estimation Jira should be updated in this respect. So yeah a lot of manual tasks seem to be done during Sprint Planning ceremony. And one more issue was planning poker game can be well played under the same roof only, and in this pandemic situation work from home is being practiced. So to address both the issues we can use DevSamurai Remote Agile Planning Poker which can be played from any remote location, virtually sharing the estimations and automatic recording estimation directly to the Jira ticket.

Well suited:

• Estimation of user stories in agile team.
• Recording the estimations and events directly to JIRA.
• Estimations can be done without leaving JIRA.
• Best suitable in this pandemic situation as most of the people are working remotely.
• Different estimation scales are present to adapt as per the team norms for example Fibonacci, T-shirt sizing and custom estimations as well.

Scenarios where it is less suitable:

• Where only inbuilt chat box from DevSamurai is used. So synchronization is an issue there.
• And apart from that a consistent internet connectivity is required.

We are using customer experience at sprint planning parts. The product owner gives some hints to developers. Developers theorize ideas regarding user stories.

I don't know if it's lost elsewhere to plan poker. I teach as the only application, I never felt the need to look for alternatives. Interface boy is crazy. He can complete projects without getting bored with features such as interface breaks displayed on the platform. It will be very efficient if there is a feature to download or save the work done.
