Planning is the step where you integrate a ticket from your backlog into your roadmap. It’s the moment when your ideas move from theory to practice.
To do this, you need to select the necessary tasks for each phase your ticket will go through. Don't worry, we’ve simplified the process for you.
Thanks to our algorithms, planning becomes fully automatic. It is based on the prioritization scores of your tickets, your teams' availability, and the planning mode you’ve configured for each phase. In other words, RoadmapHero ensures that the right people work on the right tasks at the right time.
A phase corresponds to a key step in your product flow. It encompasses a set of tasks necessary to achieve a specific result. At RoadmapHero, we have identified four essential phases that will structure your project.
There are four phases, each playing a crucial role in building your products.
Discovery:
Discovery is the first phase of product design, ensuring a thorough understanding of user and market needs. It includes user research, problem analysis, idea generation, and solution validation through testing. The goal is to ensure that the product meets expectations and adds real value. This step is crucial to reducing risks and increasing the chances of success.
Usage: Generally positioned on Initiatives / Pains, it can also help minimize risks associated with a specific feature.
Crafting:
Crafting is the phase during which the product or feature details are refined and designed. This includes creating wireframes, mockups, and precisely defining technical specifications to ensure an optimal user experience and a clear product vision.
Usage: Positioned on features, stories, bugs, and maintenance.
Development:
This is the phase where the product is actually coded and built. Developers transform specifications and designs into functional code while performing tests to ensure quality, performance, and the absence of major bugs.
Usage: Positioned on features, stories, bugs, and maintenance.
Deployment:
Deployment is the phase of making the product available to end users. This includes a possible beta testing phase, documentation, communication, or any other action that could impact this release.
Usage: Positioned on features, stories, bugs, and maintenance.
A task corresponds to a specific action that can be performed by a specialized resource. For example, UX design is a key task during the crafting phase, design is crucial for development, and documentation is essential during deployment.
tasks are assigned to builders. These are the members of your team who possess one or more tasks in one or more phases. They are the artisans of your roadmap, ensuring that each task is completed by the right person.
