Virtual interactive taskboard for tracking agile software development

A system for managing tasks during agile software development, comprising:

• memory;
• a display;
• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more programs stored in the memory and configured for execution by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including:
• instructions to detect selection of a level in a project hierarchy, wherein the level in the project hierarchy comprises a plurality of assets and a plurality of tasks associated with respective assets of the plurality of assets;
• instructions to display, in a window within a graphic user interface, in response to said selection of the level, a table that lists the plurality of assets, shows the tasks associated with the respective assets, and indicates a status of each of the tasks, wherein:
• the table includes:
• a plurality of rows, each row of the plurality of rows corresponding to a respective asset of the plurality of assets,
• a plurality of columns, each column of the plurality of columns corresponding to a respective status of a set of statuses, and
• a column separate from the plurality of columns;
• each respective status of the set of statuses corresponds to a respective status value;
• one or more of the status values are user-created;
• and
• the instructions to display the table include instructions to display summary information including work estimates for at least a subset of the listed assets in the separate column;
• and
• instructions to display separately, in response to said selection of the level, in the window within the graphical user interface, a graphical report indicating an overall status of the tasks shown in the table;
• instructions to detect a user action to update the status of a particular task of the tasks;
• instructions to update, in response to the user action, display of the particular task in the table to indicate an updated status of the particular task by displaying the task in one of the plurality of columns corresponding to a respective status to indicate the status of the particular task;
• instructions to detect selection of one or more filter criteria;
• and
• instructions to update, in response to said selection of the one or more filter criteria associated with at least the assets, in the window within the graphical user interface, display of both the table and the graphical report in accordance with the one or more filter criteria, wherein the update of the display of the table includes at least updating display of assets listed in the table, and tasks shown in the table.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs configured to be executed by a computer system to manage tasks during agile software development, the one or more programs comprising:

• instructions to detect selection of a level in a project hierarchy, wherein the level in the project hierarchy comprises a plurality of assets and a plurality of tasks associated with respective assets of the plurality of assets;
• instructions to display, in a window within a graphic user interface, in response to said selection of the level, a table that lists the plurality of assets, shows the tasks associated with the respective assets, and indicates a status of each of the tasks, wherein:
• the table includes:
• a plurality of rows, each row of the plurality of rows corresponding to a respective asset of the plurality of assets,
• a plurality of columns, each column of the plurality of columns corresponding to a respective status of a set of statuses, and
• a column separate from the plurality of columns;
• each respective status of the set of statuses corresponds to a respective status value;
• one or more of the status values are user-created;
• and
• the instructions to display the table include instructions to display summary information including work estimates for at least a subset of the listed assets in the separate column;
• and
• instructions to display separately, in response to said selection of the level, in the window within the graphical user interface, a graphical report indicating an overall status of the tasks shown in the table;
• instructions to detect a user action to update the status of a particular task of the tasks;
• instructions to update, in response to the user action, display of the particular task in the table to indicate an updated status of the particular task by displaying the task in one of the plurality of columns corresponding to a respective status to indicate the status of the particular task;
• instructions to detect selection of one or more filter criteria;
• and
• instructions to update, in response to said selection of the one or more filter criteria associated with at least the assets, in the window within the graphical user interface, display of both the table and the graphical report in accordance with the one or more filter criteria, wherein the update of the display of the table includes at least updating display of assets listed in the table, and tasks shown in the table.
