Scrum Board

A highly visible team board used to organize and track product and sprint backlog items, mapping work through stages so progress and bottlenecks are easy to see.

Key Points

  • Visualizes the workflow with columns (e.g., To Do, In Progress, Done) and cards that move across stages.
  • Helps manage items from the product and sprint backlogs, keeping priorities and ownership clear.
  • Makes bottlenecks obvious via queues, blocked indicators, and optional WIP limits or policies.
  • Should be updated continuously by the team and be easy for stakeholders to view, whether physical or digital.

Example

A Scrum team uses a digital board with columns Ready, In Progress, Code Review, Testing, and Done. During daily Scrum, they notice many items piling up in Testing, signaling a bottleneck. The team adds a WIP limit to Testing and swarms to clear the queue.
