Use agile methodologies for K2 application development with AuraQ Agile Workspace

Industry trends & challenges

There has been a significant shift in organizations moving away from traditional project management approaches to agile methodologies. Previously, drawn-out time-to-market cycles severely impacted business outcomes and limited collaboration between IT and the rest of the organization. Shifting to an agile approach alleviates poor visibility around planning and progress and incorporates direct feedback and prioritization along the development path. Low-code application development is no different, and companies must find a way to follow best practices and implement agile principles in order to rapidly deliver business solutions.

The Agile Workspace solution for K2 empowers employees to innovate and collaborate enterprise-wide. Built on the K2 platform, Agile Workspace offers an exclusive and intuitive way for users to manage projects and deliver continuous improvement by embedding agile best practices directly within the low-code application development platform.

Bridging the gap between cross-functional teams, Agile Workspace provides a central place for K2 customers to plan, develop, release, and improve software applications in an agile manner. It also accelerates development time by removing the barriers of communication across different business units and roles.

Sprint creation and planning

With the ability to create user stories, organize sprints and assign tasks to individual users, projects can be set up quickly and easily. Through team collaboration, stories or backlog items can be refined, estimated and scheduled.

Agile development

Stories, or tasks within a story, can be assigned to individual users that correspond with their individual roles and responsibilities. This capability focuses on iterative development and distinct visibility on stories in progress (to-do, running, testing, done) across sprints.

Frequent and secure releases

Frequent release is encouraged, with typical agile sprints being 1-2 weeks. Development cycles are short to encourage rapid development with high product quality and faster ROI.

Instant feedback within any application

Any user, internal or external, can provide feedback on applications, or on any webpage outside of the application. The built-in extension allows users to capture images and report feedback directly into Agile Workspace.

Real-time reporting and metrics

Built-in burn-down charts and metrics provide project information and real-time insight into how each sprint is performing.
