What is a burndown chart? →What is a burndown chart?expand_more
A burndown chart shows how much work remains over time. In Scrum, teams use it to inspect whether sprint scope is burning down at a healthy pace.
How do you calculate a burndown chart?expand_more
Start with total planned story points, divide by the number of sprint days, and subtract that ideal daily amount from the remaining work each day.
Should burndown use hours or story points?expand_more
Most Scrum teams use story points because they estimate backlog items that way. Hours can work for task-level tracking, but they often create false precision.
Why does my burndown chart go flat?expand_more
Flat periods usually mean work is in progress but not completed, stories are too large, or updates are not being recorded daily.
