  • Commitment for each release measured in Business Values
  • Actual work delivered measured in the same metrics
  • % of the total BV delivered for a certain PI - line on the chart indicating percentage of the total BV delivered for a certain PI. This line helps you identify the accuracy of how your team is providing estimations. The more the percentage, it means that the team is getting better and more precise in measuring the assigned tasks, thus you are on the right track.

Reading the chart

The following example shows that the team had only 10% estimation accuracy for 2018 Q1. Starting 2018 Q2 it looks like the lessons were learnt, and the team's estimates (commitments) become much more accurate - around 50% and more. This shows positive tendency and shows that the team matured and is showing great results in estimate (commitments) accuracy.

Selecting data to display on the chart

The interface enables you to customize your report view by showing and hiding the data depending on your current focus. For instance, if you are focused on estimates (commitments) accuracy, you can hide the Lower point (static green area) on the chart by clicking the name in the chart legend as shown below. To display hidden data again, click its name in the legend again.

Zoom feature

If you have too many PIs displayed on the report, it might get difficult to read data (see screenshot), so you can zoom in to see only a few sprints of interest. To zoom in, hover over the chart area and use the mouse wheel or your track pad. Also, you can pan over the chart by clicking and dragging on a section of the chart. To zoom out, you can use your mouse wheel or click the Refresh button.

Warnings are generated to help you identify cases when chart's data might show not the actual picture. For instance, when Feature wasn't marked as done or Features containing tickets that are not estimated (Original Estimate field is empty). Also there might be Features that don't have BV indicated (BV field is empty) or any of the children of the Feature are tagged to a different PI. The tickets in the Warnings tab are not in included into the chart calculations, so to ensure the chart's accuracy, click the issue in the warning and take action, for instance – fill out the necessary fields in this ticket.

Note

For the children of the Feature  that are tagged to a different PI

  • When a chart is built and shown, check the tickets tied to this feature / capability / portfolio epic. If at least one of these tickets is linked to a PI (fixVersion) that is different from the Pi that a feature / capability / portfolio epic is linked to, this will be displayed in a warning. 
  • If the Feature is committed in a PI, all child stories should also be completed in the PI. The feature should not be marked complete/done until all children are done, and if some children are not done until a later PI, then that Feature should only be credited as "complete" in the later PI.
