Once people outside the Team see a Burndown chart, it normally <a href=\"https:\/\/thescrumacademy.com\/2013\/08\/28\/purpose-sprint-backlog\/\">invites micromanagement<\/a> and \u201chelpful\u201d suggestions from outside the Team on how to improve.\u00a0 That is a clear case for a \u201cno\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Due to the long abuse by management and misunderstanding by practitioners, Burndown charts are falling out of favor in the Scrum community.\u00a0 You might be surprised, but I was strongly against Burndown charts when I worked as\u00a0an internal Agile coach at a big San Diego biotech.\u00a0 At the time (2007 or so), I argued quite forcefully against Burndown charts since they were used to punish teams.\u00a0 I changed my mind when a colleague, Matin Orono, told me, \u201cThat is sad you believe that.\u00a0 It [a Burndown chart] is just a tool.\u00a0 You should not eliminate a tool just because some people use it incorrectly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Martin was right then and he is right today &#8211; eliminating Burndown charts because of their misuse is sad.\u00a0 IMO, burndown charts are quite helpful for Teams and we should not eliminate them from Scrum because bad managers use them incorrectly.\u00a0 IME, an accurate Burndown chart can serve as a powerful data point on the health of a Sprint.\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/thescrumacademy.com\/2010\/10\/30\/using-a-sprint-burndown-chart\/\">When used properly<\/a>, a Burndown chart can tell if the Team is on-track or off-track on the delivery of their Sprint Goal.\u00a0 Anything that helps a Scrum Team deliver is something we should say \u201cyes\u201d to.<\/p>\n<p>This article today is the beginning of a series of six articles on simple visual controls and simple reporting tools I have used that have been helpful for Scrum Teams.\u00a0 The purpose of these articles is to give Scrum practitioners new ideas and techniques\u00a0get a sense of what is going on with a Scrum Team, visualize the complex and how progress with simple tools.\u00a0 I hope you enjoy this series!<\/p>\n<h3><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-medium

Chart<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Purpose:<\/strong> show incremental progress of work remaining, provide visibility on the true state of progress and allow team members to make adjustments in order to meet their deadlines.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Variations:<\/strong> Sprint Burndown, Product Burndown<\/p>\n<p><strong>Audience: <\/strong>team members, managers, ScrumMasters, Product Owners, stakeholders who regularly interact with the team<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to use:<\/strong> at the beginning of an iteration (or release), the team comes up with an initial list of work items they are going to complete and presents a sum of all the estimates.\u00a0 This value is placed on y-axis as the \u201cinitial value\u201d.\u00a0 Next, a straight line (the dashed, blue line) is drawn connecting the initial value with the due date &#8211; this represents the ideal rate work would be completed if an equal amount of work was completed each day.\u00a0 At regular intervals, the team provides an update of the work remaining (the green x\u2019s).\u00a0 As new work emerges, the work is estimated and added to the chart on the day it was discovered.<\/p>\n<p>The green line represents the actual progress of the team.\u00a0 When the green line is below the blue line, the team is completing work faster than the ideal rate.\u00a0 When the lines are reversed, green above blue, the team is completing work slower than the ideal rate.\u00a0 There can be numerous reasons why a team may be completing work faster, or slower, than the ideal rate and this chart does not provide any of those answers.\u00a0 What the chart does provide is a snapshot of the real progress of the team in order to ask the question, \u201cAre we going to complete all the work we committed to by the due date?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the orange line represents the linear projection of the team\u2019s current rate of progress into the future.\u00a0 Where the orange line crosses the x-axis is the forecasted completion date for the team, if their rate of completion remains the same.\u00a0 In the diagram, the orange lines informs us, as of today, the team is expected to complete the work <em><strong>after<\/strong><\/em> the agreed upon due date.\u00a0 As a result, some sort of countermeasure will need to be taken in order to meet the original due date &#8211; bring on additional teams (if there is time) or reduce scope so that the projection of the orange line crosses the x-axis at the due date.<\/p>\n<p><strong>When not to use:<\/strong> for time periods greater than six months, when the work items are difficult to estimate in advance or the flow of work is extremely variable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Scrum, the best way to show progress is through working software.\u00a0 If you do
