Background

This retro is for the S82:

Thursday, February 29th

Wednesday, March 13

Please add comments before the meeting! We’ll take a few minutes to add additional comments and discuss, then put together action items to operationalize suggestions.

Last sprints (S81) retro is here: S81 Retrospective

Discussion topics:

  • Weekly stand-ups working still? No comments

  • How to understand whether something in “Development” is 20% done or 90% done as we’re coming up on Sprint planning in order to appropriately scope the following sprint.

    • For stories in sprint you can look at sub-tasks and assess based on the number of “Done”

    • You can filter for sub-task on the active sprint screen and see how many aren’t yet in “Done”

    • @Lite Farm to start checking asynch starting Monday before the end of the sprint

  • Check in about estimated spillover during the last 3 days of a spprint (M, Tu, W)

  • Resigning from LiteFarm +1

  • Validation step - not a reflection of best practice, but a reflection that @Lite Farm isn’t doing it and that unless @Loic Sans and @David Trapp want to do this - it won’t have any owner for some time.

  • Catch up sprint when we’re falling behind – feels good to have almost completed scope for the past sprint!
