Preface

GreenHopper is an Agile Project Management tool built as add-on to Atlassian issue tracking system Jira. The rich interface of the tool allows you to focus on the work in hand and aims to achieve productivity.

It provides inbuilt support for Agile methodologies such as Scrum and Kanban. The inbuilt support for these processes makes the process adoption much easier. The flexible and customizable nature of Jira allows you to configure the tool to map to the hybrid Agile nature of the process, suiting your team requirements best.

It allows you to quickly and directly start with the backlog creation for your project. Suiting best to Scrum you can create Epic/Story/Technical task issues in a smooth and quicker way. You can prioritize your backlog items based on different business requirements. Managing prioritized backlog items and filtering capability allows you to work with both small and large backlogs.

It allows teams to estimate the backlog in an efficient and quick way. Teams can choose the estimate measurement criteria from various options. It allows planning the sprint and managing the sprint backlog efficiently. Daily sprint or Agile team tracking, transparency, and visibility have never been so easy as it is with the GreenHopper task boards. The rich interface of the task board makes it easy for team members to work on day-to-day technical tasks, prioritize items on task board well, update the task status, and so on.

The reporting functionality of GreenHopper gives enough information for any Agile project. The sprint Burndown charts, Epic reporting, and velocity charts allow you to track teams and backlogs over sprints. The control chart allows you to focus on improvements for your process. The cumulative flow diagram gives information related to how the whole backlog is moving ahead. The additional Jira reporting feature allows you to generate relevant reporting capability to your project.
