What's new in Redmine Agile plugin

Sprint history charts, collapsible board columns and AI answers about your sprints

New features

Sprint history on charts

Pick one sprint and the charts replay its history day by day: which issues were added to the sprint or removed from it, and when story points were re-estimated. The scope line moves with every change, so you can tell a real delay from a growing sprint. Hover a day to see what changed. History is recorded from the moment you update.

Collapsible board columns

Fold any board column into a narrow strip and give the working columns more room. You can still drop cards onto a folded column, and the layout is remembered in your browser. Works on Scrum and Kanban boards.

Agile sprints

Assign issues to sprints with their own start and end dates and track metrics per sprint instead of per version. Versions become the higher level: releases that group sprints. Manage sprints in a project settings tab or from the issue context menu.

Backlog planning tab

Plan work in the project Backlog tab: drag issues into sprints and versions, see assigned and unassigned tasks, show issue details on cards and save the filtered view as a custom query. Unassigned tasks can also appear in a Backlog column on the board.

Scrum and Kanban boards

Choose a Kanban or Scrum board. A Scrum board shows the tasks of one selected sprint. Both types support default chart and unit settings, totals, swimlanes and an optional Backlog column.

Cycle Time chart

Show charts for any period, or for the selected sprint on a Scrum board. The Cycle Time chart shows the average and total time to finish issues of each type.
