Understand Agile and Scrum Basics

Agile Methodology

Agile is a project management approach focused on delivering work in small, incremental releases instead of large launches.

Key benefits include:

• Faster delivery cycles
• Better adaptability to change
• Continuous feedback from customers

Agile is a broad concept, and Scrum is one of the most widely used frameworks to implement it.

Scrum Roles

Before using Scrum, it’s important to understand the roles:

• Product owner: The person in charge of managing the product backlog and the release of the product. Their main job is to make sure that the interests of the customers are prioritized in the product backlog.
• Scrum master: The person in charge of guiding the team to develop the product in the most efficient way. Their job includes managing the sprints and the day to day standup meetings to make sure everything is on schedule.
• Team members: Any members on the team, including designers, UI/UX designers, programmers and testers, etc. Team members’ main responsibility is to go through the sprints and deliver the product on time.

Set Up Your Agile Workflow in Quire

Product Backlog

The List tab acts as your product backlog.

• Add all feature requests, user stories, and tasks
• Break down large features into smaller tasks
• Continuously prioritize items based on importance

Backlog Structure

Use Quire’s task hierarchy to organize work:

• Create tasks for features, bugs, or requests

• Break tasks into subtasks for actionable steps
• Store detailed descriptions in the task panel

Sprint Sublists

1. Create a sublist for each sprint.
2. Select tasks from the backlog.
3. Add them to the sprint sublist.

4. Set the sublist to Board view.

5. Track progress using status columns.

During a sprint:

• Team members focus only on sprint tasks
• Tasks move across statuses (e.g., To Do → In Progress → Done)
• Progress is visible to the whole team

Daily Scrum Meetings

To support daily standups:

1. Create a separate sublist for daily scrum meetings.

2. Add relevant tasks to the sublist.
3. Review tasks during the meeting.

During the meeting, discuss:

• What has been completed
• What will be worked on next
• Any blockers or issues

Sprint Timelines

1. Switch your sprint sublist to Timeline view.
2. Assign start and due dates to tasks.
3. Review the sprint schedule visually.

Comments and Collaboration

Use the comment section to:

• Discuss tasks with team members
• Add checklists for tracking progress
• Document decisions and updates

This helps maintain a clear communication history.

Filters for Standups

Filters help you create focused views.

For daily standups:

1. Open the sprint or scrum sublist.
2. Switch to Board view.
3. Group tasks by assignee.

This allows you to:

• See workload distribution
• Identify blockers quickly
• Track progress at a glance

Tip: You can save the most commonly used filters so you don’t have to set the filter options every time you need it.

GitHub Integration

Quire integrates with GitHub to streamline development workflows.

With this integration, you can:

• Link tasks to GitHub issues and commits
• Sync comments between Quire and GitHub
• Track development progress across tools

This improves collaboration between product and engineering teams.

Read more on our blog about what you can do with integrating with GitHub.
