Agile Workflow States - An Overview

A typical workflow progression for a user story follows

  1. The product owner creates a user story in the New state with the default reason.
  2. The team updates the status to Active when they decide to complete the work during the sprint.
  3. A user story is moved to Resolved when the team has completed all its associated tasks and unit tests for the story pass.
  4. A user story is moved to the Closed state when the product owner agrees that the story has been implemented according to the Acceptance Criteria and Acceptance Tests pass.
