Scrum Board
A Scrum Board is a visual project management tool used in Agile software development to track the progress of work items (e.g., user stories, tasks, bugs) through various stages of a sprint. It typically consists of columns representing workflow states like 'To Do', 'In Progress', and 'Done', with cards or sticky notes for each item that team members move across the board as work advances. This tool enhances transparency, collaboration, and real-time status updates within Scrum teams.
Developers should use a Scrum Board when working in Agile or Scrum environments to manage sprint backlogs, visualize workflow, and improve team coordination, especially in iterative projects with frequent changes. It is essential for tracking progress, identifying bottlenecks, and ensuring alignment on priorities, making it valuable for software development teams aiming for efficiency and adaptability in fast-paced settings.
