Sprint Review + Planning

Jan 13 - Jan 27, 2014

Executive Summary

Overall Status

Sprint status is good. The Product team initially pointed and prioritized the following themes and tasks for Sprint 121 comprising 21 points. Overall the team completed 14 points for this sprint.

While the team did start work on all the remainder tickets, the tickets were not completed. This was due to the Direct research tickets that took more time and resources than anticipated. Also for one of the regression enhancement ticket, while the work and testing was completed on CONN-615, the team was not sure that the test will run consistently and so chose to move it to the backlog for further analysis and did not take credit since it was not completed.

Note - There was also one holiday in the sprint.
