Burn-Down Chart
Burn-Down and Burn-Up Charts are visual tools for tracking project progress in agile project management. The burn-down chart shows the remaining work over time, while the burn-up chart shows the completed work and the total scope. Both help to monitor progress and identify bottlenecks.
Effort: small Difficulty: low Effectiveness: continuous
Burn-down and burn-up charts help teams to visualize the progress of their work throughout the entire duration of the project and to derive lessons learned.
💡 Tip from practice: Use the charts as a basis for discussion for daily stand-ups and sprint retrospectives.
