Sprint management process design
Now that we have a better understanding of the tool, we can create a definition of the sprint
management process introduced in Chapter 3 , Using BPMN 2.0 to Model Business Scenari-
os . To explain the biggest variety of elements, we will use the third version of the process
we defined, which is the most complex. Please refer to Chapter 3 , Using BPMN 2.0 to
Model Business Scenarios , if you need to refresh any information about what the process
definition contains. The idea is to know how to create the diagram shown in the following
figure:
We'll continue working on the sprintManagement process definition. We will move
the cursor over the predefined start node and select the Task option from its contextual
menu (which should be the small rectangle with the rounded corners). This option will add
a new task that is connected to the Start Event node in the editing canvas. We can repeat
these steps, adding gateways (rhomboids) and sequence flows (arrows) when needed, by
clicking on the rhomboid and rectangle icons on the context menu we previously described
and by clicking-and-dragging on the arrow icon to create sequence flows connecting exist-
ing objects. Finally, we can create an End event node by clicking on the circle icon of the
context menu with the thicker border.
When getting to the point where we need catching events and boundary events, we can
search for them in Shape Repository by clicking on the left-hand side accordion panel, se-
lecting from the different menus available ( Tasks , Gateways , Intermediate Catch Events ,
and so on), and dragging-and-dropping a specific element into the editing canvas. We can
