Sprint is a time period where all user stories are created and done. A Sprint is usually 2 to 3 weeks. Sprint consists of planning ,designing, coding and testing.
New sprints in jira are normally created by scrum master.
To create a new sprint we go to the backlog page and then we can simply click create sprint button. A new sprint will be created.
Then once our sprint is created we can add stories to it by dragging and dropping stories to it i.e stories we want to finish in this particular sprint.
We can then start our sprint by clicking start.
We choose the duration like 2 weeks ,3 weeks etc and in sprint goals give a description.
Then we can add subtasks to our story i.e the type of testing we are about to do here.
Then scrum master can assign tasks to a particular user.
Then once testers have started working on a task the scrum master can move the tasks to in progress and then finally to done .
if find a bug we can add the bug and link it to a sub task and then also link to a epic and sprint.
Then once all the stories are completed and testing is also complete i.e stories and testing are moved to the done state we can then press complete sprint.
Then once a sprint is finished we can check sprint review reports etc.
