You can use this repo to copy dwyls labels into your repo: https://github.com/dwyl/labels

1. Create an issue for the task you are working on:

• reference the issue number of the user-story it relates to ("as a... I want... so that...")
• list the technical tasks involved in completing it, either within the issue itself, or as separate issues that refer to the main issue and are given a 'technical' label.

2. Estimate how long it will take you to finish the issue and add the appropriate time label (t1h = 1 hour, t1d = 1 day, etc). If a user-story will take you longer than a day then its too big. Break it down into smaller issues.
3. Give the issue a priority label.
4. Assign yourself to the issue you're working on and add the 'in-progress' label.
5. When you make commits give appropriate descriptions of the technical task it completes and refer to the issue number in the commit message. (e.g. 'related User Story: As a user who has selected a category I can add a new goal within that category at the click of a button #7'). Aim for small commits that complete a single task.
6. When the PR is ready for review:

• Assign to your team-mates to review and add the label 'in-review' to the PR.

7. When the PR is closed, and once you're satisfied an issue is complete and on the live version of the project, change the label to 'please-test' and assign it to your product owner. This is to indicate to the product owner that they should check if they are satisfied the work is done.

• If they are not satisfied, they should detail in the issue what needs to change. Un-assign them, remove the please-test label, and return to step 2.
• If they are satisfied, they can close the issue.
