​

Story

Primary artefacts used to define system behaviour in agile development. Stories are not requirements, they are short, simple descriptions of a small piece of functionality that delivers functionality to the customer/user.  Estimation of work are captured using story points.

Task

Task are not written in the same level of requirements as a user story. A task captures requirements in more of a technical nature.

The estimation of work is generally captured using time effort.

Sub-TASK 

Sub tasks are used to break up an issue ( Story or Task) into separate pieces of work. Overall estimation using story points should be captured on the sub task.
