The iceScrum development team is glad to announce the immediate availability of iceScrum R2#15.1 version.
Get it now in the download section!

Changes overview

This is a minor release that includes some new stories and fixes defects discovered in the previous release. Get the complete list of changes in the release notes (in english or in french).

Release Plan and Sprint report PDF generation

In the previous version, there was an action to print the Release Plan, but it was very simple and it was difficult to get something workable when one wanted to get everything (sprints, all stories) at one time. Now, we’ve added a new feature to generate a PDF of the complete Release Plan. An icon has been added in the toolbar, and has replaced the old « Printer » icon.


The new icon in the toolbar

The resulting document lists every sprint of the release with their associated stories. It looks like the Release Plan view in iceScrum.

We also added a new generated document in the Sprint Backlog: the Sprint report. This feature will generate a document containing a textual report including all the stories planned in the Sprint Backlog with all their functional test details.

A short overview of bug fixes and other minor evolutions

  • The annoying bug affecting the product backlog has been fixed (a new story wouldn’t show up in the backlog unless the user close it and reopen it).
  • The Fibonacci suite is now using the real suite (and not the one used by some planning poker cards) and stops at 34.
  • It is now possible to create, edit, and delete stories from the table view mode of the product backlog.
  • And more… (check the release notes).

We hope that you’ll appreciate this new version. Try it!
On our side, we are working for offering you the best services for your agile projets; you can already take a look on the first ones: http://www.icescrum.com.

Cheers,

The iceScrum team.

We decided to change the site again because the previous one (made with Joomla) was too often attacked. We hope this one will be better and that you will like it.
