Unlocking the Power of Jira Story Mapping for Agile Teams
Story mapping in Jira is a powerful technique that helps visualize the development process of Agile teams in product development. This results in improved collaboration and project outcomes for teams while creating a shared understanding of user needs.
What is Story Mapping in Jira?
Story mapping is an activity that involves a two-dimensional visualization of user stories. It helps teams understand the user's journey and prioritize features based on their level of importance. In Jira, story mapping enables teams to visualize relationships between tasks, making it easier to plan releases and workflows.
