4/14/2022/ Comments off

Scrumpoker online is an open source web implementation of planning poker for scrum teams to determine the complexity of stories. It aims to integrate ticketing systems like Redmine, Github and Gitlab. Agile Poker for Jira Cloud is a well-known tool for quick and convenient estimations.It was inspired by four industry-standard estimation methodologies: Planning Poker®, Wideband Delphi, Magic Estimation, and Bucket System (last two also known as Silent Grouping, Affinity Estimation, Swimlanes Sizing, or Relative Estimations).

I've seen a JIRA plugin here:

but I'd rather see just the planning poker portion integrated into Greenhopper.

NOTE: These directions are for the latest design of JIRA. If these screenshots don’t look like your version of JIRA, check out our directions for the older version.

There are a few steps to get PlanningPoker and your instance of JIRA talking to each other. First, we’ll add the ability in JIRA to listen to planningpoker.com and then we are going to authorize your account to send updates to your JIRA instance.

Before you start

This process takes 2-3 minutes to complete and goes pretty smoothly if you have your JIRA instance open in one tab and the PlanningPoker screen with the JIRA Integration details in another.

Steps 1 – 9 Will need to be completed by a JIRA admin. If you are not an admin of your JIRA instance please share these instructions and your integration details with them.

From your JIRA instance

Step1 – From your JIRA System Dashboard, click Settings in the left side navigation.

Step 2 – Click Products in the left side navigation.

Step 3 – Click Application Links in the left side navigation.

Step 4 – Type the Application URL from your PlanningPoker integration settings page and click Create new link.

Step 5 – Click Continue in the modal. If it says there is no response do not worry and continue with the integration.

Step 6 – Type in the a the Application Name and select the Application Type. Both can be found in your integration settings on PlanningPoker.

Important Note: Only enter values for the top two fields (Application Name and Application Type). If you enter anything else, JIRA will tell you that all of the rest of the fields are required.

Step 7 – Edit the new application Link by clicking the pencil icon.

Step 8 – Click Incoming Authentication

Step 9 – Add your integration details from PlanningPoker in the corresponding fields in the modal. Remember to scroll down in the modal to get to all the fields and to click Save.

Now you’re are all done with JIRA but there are two last steps to complete in PlanningPoker.

Now you are all set. When you create a new game you will now be able to pull stories directly in from JIRA and even allow the points from your planning sessions to sync back automatically. Here are the instructions to import stories when creating a game with the integration.
