Kanban Boards practice test
Kanban Boards are tools used to visualize the workflow and track the status of individual tasks from start to finish. The board is typically divided into multiple stages of a work lifecycle, e.g., To-Do, In Progress, Review, and Done. Tasks are represented as cards and move through these stages as work progresses. A well-managed Kanban Board allows for easy identification of bottlenecks, a balanced distribution of workload, transparency on team’s work, and a clear understanding of the workflow stages.
