Metrics & Charts
Detailed explanation of each metric and chart on the Analytics dashboard.
Velocity
A bar chart showing story points completed per sprint. Includes your last 5 completed sprints plus the current sprint.
- Helps you understand your team's throughput over time
- A rising trend indicates increasing capacity
- A declining trend may signal blockers or scope issues
Burndown Chart
A line chart tracking remaining story points over the sprint duration.
- Ideal line (gray) — A straight line from total points to zero, representing even daily progress
- Actual line (blue) — Real remaining points based on when stories were marked Done
The burndown is calculated from activity logs, tracking when each story's status changed to "done" and subtracting its points from the remaining total.
Note: The burndown chart only appears if your sprint has both a start date and end date set.
Status Distribution
A donut chart showing the count of stories in each status:
| Status | Color |
|---|---|
| To Do | Gray |
| In Progress | Blue |
| Review | Orange |
| Done | Green |
Completion Rate
The percentage of stories in the Done status:
Completion Rate = Done stories / Total stories × 100
Displayed as a percentage with the raw count (e.g., "80% — 8/10 stories").
Cycle Time
Average number of days it takes for a story to go from In Progress to Done.
- Calculated from activity logs that record status changes
- Only includes stories that have actually reached Done
- Shows the count of stories used in the calculation
A lower cycle time means faster delivery. If cycle time is increasing, look for bottlenecks in your process.
