Organizing the work

GitLab Groups provide capabilities for assembling


Group
related projects together and grant members
access to several projects at once.

The Group provides a layer for strategic planning,


governance, and management.

Sub Groups are nested, child Groups for additional


Sub Group
levels of organization.

Projects are where teams collaborate, plan work,


Project
write code, and deliver applications.
Defining the work

Epics provide grouping of Epics and Epic (Capability)


Issues.

Issue (Non-Functional)

Issue (Acceptance)

Sub Epics represent smaller pieces


Sub Epic (Feature)
of a larger Epic, larger than an Issue.

Issues describe small, discrete Issue (User Story)


pieces of work.

Doing the work

The Git Repository is the foundation of a GitLab


Project.

Merge Requests are project assets to visualize and


collaborate on proposed changes to source code
on a Git branch.

CI/CD Pipelines describe code build and test jobs


and stages for a Merge Request.

Code Reviews are discussion threads on Merge


Requests where developer peers review and
comment on changes to the code.
Project
Approvals are explicit acceptance events,
recorded in the Merge Request, signaling sign-off
on associated code changes.

GitLab Workflow Components

GitLab Function Also known


Component as...

Project The core building block where work is organized, managed, tracked and delivered to help the team to Repository
collaborate and plan work in the form of issues.

Group A collection of projects and subgroups. They are like folders. Project

Issue An issue is part of a project. It is the fundamental planning object where the team documents the use Story,
case in the description, discusses the approach, estimates the size/effort (issue weight), tracks actual Narrative
time/effort, assigns work, and tracks progress.

Epic A collection of related issues across different groups and projects to help organize by theme

Merge The linkage between the issue and the actual code changes. Captures the design, implementation Pull Request
Request details (code changes), discussions (code reviews), approvals, testing (CI Pipeline), and security scans.

Label Used to tag and track work for a project or group and associate issues with different initiatives

Board A visual listing of projects and issues useful for teams to manage their backlog of work, prioritize items,
and move issues to the team or specific stage in the project.

Milestone / A sprint or deliverable(s), helping you organize code, issues, and merge requests into a cohesive group Release /
Iteration Sprint

Roadmap A visual representation of the various epics for the group
