What is Agile Project Management?

Agile project management is one of the most popular project management approaches out there. It takes an iterative approach because it breaks a project down into chunks, works on them over short periods of time called sprints, and then repeats the process until the project is complete and all the deliverables are finalized.

What is CodeArts Req?

CodeArts Req is an agile project management and collaboration service for software development teams, including multi-project management, sprint management, requirement management, defect tracking, and statistic reports.

CodeArts Req is a requirement management and team collaboration service drawn from Huawei’s years of R&D practices. It has multiple out-of-the-box requirement models and object types (requirements, bugs, tasks, etc.) to fit your scenarios. It supports various R&D modes such as IPD, DevOps, and Lean Kanban, and provides functions including cross-project collaboration, baseline and change management, custom reports, Wiki online collaboration, and document management.

What is the Scrum Development Process?

Scrum is a popular agile development method. It enables continuous delivery through repetitive sprints, which are cycles of closed-loop software development from user requirement planning to user feedback collection.

Sprint planning meetings, daily Scrum meetings, sprint retrospective meetings, and sprint review meetings are keys to simple but efficient project management
