JIRA Scrum Board - Quick Filter for Standup

[Stephen Wright]

To make our standups more efficient, I wanted to make a quick filter that would allow me to filter on tasks and sub-tasks assigned to a user. This is the easy part and we are doing this currently.

The hard part would to be include all sub-tasks of a story that would display as a result of filtering by the user (either by story, or sub-task of a story). We would like this to be able to get the full view of a story they are working on.

For example, when working on a story to add filtering, sorting, and paging, we may have 3 sub-tasks of filter, sort, page - and if John Dev is assigned to "page", he can talk to his part of the story, but we'd also like to see the status of the other 2 sub tasks while he talks about it.

Is there a way to filter the board this way?

Hi Stephen,

You can use this JQL querry :
(assignee = "John Doe" OR parent in (assignee = "John Doe")) AND issuetype in (Sub-task, Story)

Hi Stephen,

I don't think there is a JQL-function for this in standard Jira.

Maybe, ScriptRunner can help there.

As a workaround: You could use stories-as-swimlanes, so that you have all the subtasks of a story in one lane. And the team members could flag their subtasks they've been working on (in case there are too many of those subtasks), so that you and your team would have a) all the board in front of them and b) still get a quick focus on the interesting cards.

Kind regards

Ingo
