Overview
A groomed card is one that you have reviewed, estimated, and prioritised, and that is ready to be planned in a sprint. Groomed cards are no longer on a separate tab. They sit in the Refinement Backlog, next to the cards that are still in the Backlog state, and you tell them apart by their state.
The Groomed box in the Summary shows how many cards are groomed and their story points. Select it to show only the groomed cards.
Navigation
From the top menu of the project, expand Agile Planning and select Backlog Refinement.
Groom a Card
- In the Refinement Backlog, select the check boxes of the Backlog cards that are ready.
- Select MARK AS GROOMED in the bottom bar.
The Groomed count in the Summary goes up. To see which cards are groomed, select the Groomed box, or group the list by Backlog Refinement State.
Move a Groomed Card
Select one or more groomed cards. The bottom bar then offers two buttons:
- MARK AS BACKLOG sends the cards back to the Backlog state.
- MOVE TO READY FOR SPRINT ALLOCATION sends the cards to the Sprint Planning tab, where you drag them into a sprint.
You cannot select Backlog and Groomed cards together. For the full list of controls on the Refinement Backlog, see Understanding the Refinement Backlog.
