Learn how to measure and improve sprint velocity in Scrum to enhance Agile team performance and streamline project planning in this comprehensive guide.

Velocity – or Sprint velocity – is the number of story points completed by a development team in one Sprint. Story points measure the complexity of tasks or user stories – user-centric product narratives – and how much effort it takes to accomplish them.

2021年1月15日 · Sprint velocity is the average number of story points or hours of development work or T-shirt sizes the team completes in the average sprint. If you’re just beginning to use sprint velocity as a metric for your software teams, there are several things to understand about it.

2024年1月30日 · Calculating sprint velocity and not sure where to start? Catch this guide to learn how to calibrate your team’s average velocity and improve it over sprints.

2024年2月20日 · Sprint velocity is a measurement of how much an Agile team can produce during one normal sprint cycle. You’ll use two main variables to calculate sprint velocity: how much work your Agile team completed and how long it took them to complete that work.

We’re going to look at what sprint velocity is, how it can affect your development cycle, and what formulas you can use to measure sprint velocity.

2023年10月17日 · Velocity empowers teams to make more precise Sprint plans by providing insights into how many story points they can realistically accomplish within a Sprint. It serves as a foundation for productive discussions during Sprint Planning sessions, helping teams set reasonable objectives.

Learn how to determine your team’s sprint velocity, and use it to accurately estimate the amount of work that your team can complete in each sprint.

In the Scrum framework, velocity is a key performance indicator that measures the amount of work a team can handle during a sprint. Not only does it gauge the team's speed, but it also offers a projection of their potential output.

2021年9月13日 · It is common for Velocity to fluctuate over Sprints. When that happens, there are a number of approaches you can use: Take the last number and use that. It's the most recent data point you have and therefore, the most accurate. Take the average over all Sprints. It smoothes out the peaks and troughs and gives us an average we can work with.
