Completion Rate Chart

The completion rate is a metric that measures the percentage of work items or issues completed within a defined sprint. It offers valuable insights into the team's ability to meet their commitments and achieve sprint goals.


A high completion rate indicates that the team is effectively finishing the work they planned for the sprint, while a lower rate may suggest that there are challenges or delays in completing the planned work.

The completion rate consists of 3 parameters Completed, Incompleted, Carryover.

"Completed" refers to the user stories, tasks, or backlog items that the development team successfully finished within the defined time frame of the Sprint. These are items that have met the Definition of Done and are considered ready for release or further testing.

Formula: Completed / Committed * 100

 

"Incompleted" items are those that were not finished within the Sprint time frame. These could be tasks or user stories that, for various reasons, could not be completed as initially planned. It is crucial to understand why these items were not completed to improve future Sprint planning and execution.

Formula: Incompleted / Commited *100

 

"Carryover" items are the incompleted tasks or user stories from the previous Sprint that have been carried over to the current Sprint. Carryover items may be carried over for various reasons, such as unexpected challenges, scope changes, or resource constraints. It is essential to track and manage carryover items to avoid accumulating a backlog of unfinished work.
