Burndown Chart
A Burndown Chart is a visual that shows the amount of work that a team has finished over a given time frame, typically within a Scrum Sprint. Comparing the amount of work that needs to be done with the time allotted, helps the team determine whether they are on track to meet their objectives.
- As tasks are completed, the graph “burns down” to zero.
- The team’s progress is reflected in the Burndown Chart, which is updated frequently, sometimes even daily. The team may identify trends and modify their strategy as necessary to enhance their performance in upcoming Sprints by monitoring their progress over time.
