Scrum: How to work on one story at a time
- by Juergen
I was nominated as scrum master in a new formed scrum team. We have already done some sprints. In the beginning I tried to make my team to work on one story at a time. But it didn't work.
My team had difficulties to distribute the tasks in a way that they can work simultaneously on one story. Maybe we are doing something wrong?
For example: we have a story to create a new dialog. We create the following tasks:
Create Model classes
Read model data from database
Connect model classes with view
Implement dialog handling
Save data on close

Solution Description
Can theses tasks be done by more than one person at a time? The tasks - more or less - build upon each other.
Or do we design the tasks in a wrong way?
