Alternative Project
With the written permission of the unit coordinator, you may work on an alternative project for, for example, your work or hobby.
Task Description
1. Update Taiga plan to reflect project progress
The project expects to run 3 sprints. The first sprint has already been completed; you will plan and review the second sprint and make recommendations for the third sprint.
You are provided with a rough project plan and development files of an ICT project representing progress made in the project at the end of its first sprint, that is, Sprint 1. You will need to create a Taiga plan to reflect the project status at the end of Sprint 1. You can use Taiga.io to create a Taiga plan. You will need to complete tasks such as the following:
• Perform acceptance testing to check which of the user stories in the sprint plan have been successfully completed. You will update the Taiga plan to reflect this progress.
• Identify issues related to Quality and Risks and create plans to deal with the issues. Add the issues, risks and controls you plan to implement to the Sprint Issues section on the sprint taskboard in your Tiaga project. Although your group will not be developing during this assignment, you should identify issues as though your group was the development team for Sprint 1 and will be the development team for the remainder of the project.
2. Create Sprint 2 Plan You need to:
• Create at least 5 additional user stories and add them to the product backlog. Pairs should create at least 8 additional user stories. Groups of 3 should create at least 10 additional user stories. Your user stories should:
o Adhere to Moore’s template o Possess INVEST properties o Contain appropriate acceptance criteria
o Include a story point effort estimation and monetary value • Decompose user stories into subtasks
• Prioritise the product backlog.
• Choose user stories for the sprint backlog for Sprint 2 with due consideration of the team’s velocity.
In Week 4, you will submit your Taiga plan to the unit website. Export your project from Taiga and upload the project file to the unit website. You will not receive formal feedback for this plan until after your presentation.
3. Present Sprint Review
In Week 5, you will be provided with a new set of development files representing the product at the end of Sprint 2. To prepare for your presentation, you will need to update the Taiga plan that you submitted in Week 4 to reflect the progress made in the project.
In Week 6, you will present a review of Sprint 2 which should cover aspects such as:
• Acceptance testing: each member of the team should demonstrate a different, completed user story by performing a walkthrough showing that the acceptance criteria for the user story have been met. Please demonstrate your own Sprint 2 user stories if possible, otherwise, you may demonstrate Sprint 1 user stories.
• Scope management, for example,
o Present and discuss your Taiga’s product and Sprint 2 backlogs: which user stories passed and did not pass acceptance testing
o Discuss your size estimates for each user story
o Present and discuss your Taiga Kanban table for Sprint 2 detailing how you broke down each user story into subtasks. o Present and discuss your Taiga burndown chart, your choice of velocity for Sprint 2 and determine what velocity you would use for Sprint 3
• Quality and Risk management, for example, present and discuss your Taiga sprint issues related to quality and risks including any management plans regarding either Sprint 1 or 2.
You do not need to create a Sprint 3 plan.
Each team member should talk for between 3 to 5 minutes each.
