Consider excluding subtasks from Board JQL
Workboard works properly even if subtasks are excluded from Board JQL. By excluding subtasks your "Active Sprint" Board will not be "polluted" by subtasks, therefore more transparent and manageable.

(project = TEST) AND issuetype NOT IN subtaskIssueTypes() ORDER BY Rank ASC
