JetBrains YouTrack 4 - No More Excuses Not to Be Agile
PRAGUE, -- The intelligent bug and issue tracker introduces Agile project management to facilitate your team's work flow across the board: absolutely free for early adopters
JetBrains®, the creators of IntelliJ IDEA, ReSharper, TeamCity and other intelligent, productivity-enhancing tools for software developers, today announced the availability of a new major release of YouTrack, their innovative issue tracking and agile project management system.
YouTrack has gained widespread popularity thanks to its keyboard-oriented approach, powerful search queries and command syntax, and fully customizable workflows and issue attributes.
YouTrack 4.0 introduces a completely new, independent Agile project management module.
Now Scrum teams can plan and manage their work during a series of consecutive sprints, while teams that follow Kanban process can manage and measure their work flow on the board. Agile project management in YouTrack is flexible enough to adapt to mature Scrum or Kanban workflows, as well as to introduce new teams to these Agile processes. In fact, all teams can get the best of both worlds, by blending their favorite practices from either process.
"YouTrack doesn't impose any specific Agile process on you, but helps you follow the core methodology guidelines and adapt them to your workflow," said Vadim Gurov, YouTrack Team Lead. "If you're new to Agile, you can organize and visualize your process and get introduced to the main principles of each process. If you're an expert, you can easily adapt YouTrack to your workflow and mix-and-match the best practices of each process."
Key Agile features of new YouTrack 4.0 include:
- Scrum/Kanban boards
