A cumulative flow chart is a tool used in queuing theory. This is an area chart that represents the amount of work in a given state, showing arrivals, queue time, queue quantity, and the throughput.

The horizontal x-axis in a CFD indicates time, and the vertical y-axis indicates tickets. Each colored area of the chart equates to a workflow status.

The CFD can be useful for identifying bottlenecks. If your chart contains an area that is widening vertically over time, the column that equates to the widening area will generally be a bottleneck.

You can apply a throughput The Sprint Burnup is a graph allowing to follow the progress of the work of a Scrum team, during a Sprint.

The x axis represents the days of the sprint. The y axis corresponds to the unit of measurement used (story point, tickets, business value, ...).

The graph is composed of 3 curves:

  • The purple curve represents the total number of elements (story point, ticket, ...) present in the Sprint Backlog;

  • The light blue curve corresponds to the total number of elements carried out by the team, per day, cumulatively;

  • The dark blue curve represents the ideal number of total items to process per day.

The team can, every day, see the progress of its activities, in relation to the commitment to achieve and the ideal curve. When the achieved is higher than the ideal achieved, the team is in phase with its commitment. When the achieved is less than the ideal achieved, then the team is at risk on its ability to keep its commitment.

You can track progress across all completed or ongoing sprints.
