Configuring task boards
Task boards are interactive, alternate views of folder contents that can help teams communicate and measure progress during a sprint, release, or other milestone. Task boards help with planning and collaboration during stand-ups, retrospectives, issue triage, and other team meetings. See Using task boards.
You can configure multiple task boards to meet the needs of different teams in your organization. Each task board can have different columns, card colors, and swimlane options. See Task board components.
Task boards are heavily dependent on the project workflow and folders. Other project components, such as time tracking, requirement types, item mapping rules, and link definitions, are also used for task board features. Before you configure task boards, make sure you understand how these components are used in task boards and plan the configuration. See Task Board Configuration Best Practices.
