story progress bar status
RTC 4.0.3
We setup a agile project and created a bunch of stories for the developers.
We noted some odd behaviors and are wondering if this is normal.
If a story has a child task linked to it, and no points are assigned to the story, the progress bar shows status based on the estimate/effort defined on the child task.
If you assign points to that same story, the progress bar clears showing no progress.
Is this normal/expected behavior?
We're new to agile so we're going through a lit of a learning curve.
One answer
I'm not sure if I understood correct but nevertheless will try an answer.
In scrum or agile projects story points are credited with zero until a story is finished and all, when it is finished. There are no partial credits when some or all of the child task are finished.
A good practice is to have not to big stories because the product owner would not see any progress in story points until that big story is finished, although baybe 90% of the child tasks are ready. Better to split stories into smaller ones because than you could see progress.
