Upload estimation references

[ShadowZone]

Hi there,
I just stumbled upon this really cool tool and it's perfect for my needs! Thanks for the effort!

My team and I have a list of estimation references, just previous stories that we think are a good baseline for future story estimations, which we update regularly.

Right now we use a Mural whiteboard to track them, but in the planning session, we hop between the planning board, the external planning poker app, and the estimation reference board. That is really confusing!

A really nice feature would be if the Moderator could upload a CSV or JSON file, packed with these reference stories, and if the users click on a card, they get shown stories, which were estimated with the same value previously.

Long story short, there is a Jira planning poker plugin with screenshots. Maybe you can get there some inspiration.

HI @ShadowZone ,

Thanks for your inputs. Let's figure it out together... :)

There seem to be two feature ideas involved here

A Import reference stories

We have a "import csv" feature already in place. But I think currently we only import title + description (e.g. from Jira).
We could extend it to also import an additional property "already present estimation" (aka "consensus").

B Display stories with the same value...

• The Matrix displays all estimated stories as a reference. Maybe this already serves your needs?
• ** if the users click on a card, they get shown stories, ** Would you display these "similar" stories after giving an estimate? if "auto-reveal" is on (by default), the card gets revealed immediately after everyone estimated. so you might not see the "similar stories" display..

I just checked. we can easily extend the CSV import to also set a consensus value. We just have to think about how the column in the csv should be named. (can be multiple names, that will then be machted to "consensus"). Maybe: "points" "estimation" "consensus" "storypoints" ?
