I recently stepped into a tech leadership role with limited Agile structure, managing one front-end and one back-end developer. How can I efficiently track individual and overlapping work in Jira?
i use labels to tag tasks as fe or be and cross refernce overlapping ones. custom dashbords with filters help me track progress well in our lite agile setup. hope this helps
In a similar role, I managed separate front-end and back-end efforts by setting up custom fields and dedicated boards in Jira for each team. This approach allowed me to segregate work items clearly while still enabling cross-referencing when tasks overlapped. I found that configuring statuses for each board that reflected the specific workflow improved overall task tracking and communication. Regular review meetings helped us resolve dependencies and adjust priorities on the fly, ensuring that both teams remained aligned even with minimal Agile processes in place.
