    Is there any plan to include some of the other indicators that are currently on the "old" agile burndown, such as team effort and estimate accuracy? Those are crucial indicators for us.

  2. Peter Doyle

    When I refresh Report page in browser the time estimates are in weeks, days, hour e.g. 5w 3h 30m

    I have to navigate to Work and back to Report to get a meaningful time estimate in hours e.g. 191h

    Is this a bug? I want to keep the estimate in hours.

    This is annoying - like much of the Rapid Board there is no configuration for this. I would like to turn off the Time Spent line as it's usually the inverse of the Time Remaining and confuses people who don't need to see it. I also keep an excel chart of the burn down because I cannot read the time remaining at the end the day from the graph. I would like a large point plotted for each day with a visibility toggle and a bubble that reads Time Remaining, Ideal Time Remaining (the guideline value at this point, and the Delta.

    What actually affects the red line on the burndown chart?

    If a sub-task of a story was estimated to take 10 hours and it only took 3, and the issue is resolved, does GreenHopper automatically reduce the red line by the remaining 7 hours? Or does it only reflect the 3 that were logged?  Do I have to manually log the last 7 hours to reduce it to 0?

    Hi, I'm trying to understand where the value for Remaining Time Estimate column comes from. I've started the sprint and one of the task says it has 266.5h in that column. However, when I open the task I see that Original Estimate is 4d, Remaining is 4d and Logged is 4d 2h 30m.

    Thanks.

  5. Lionel Champalaune

    I didn't find a good way with the RapidBoard to show the global state of the project.

    The perfect view will be a global/release burndownchart (not based on a sprint but on a version)

    Ideally I would like to give either the start date, the end date and if the tasks are not already identified at least a start global estimation (either in story points or in original estimate time).

    A release burndownchart would help the PO and the team to see if at the global view the project is going well.

    On this kind of chart it can be interesting to see appear the sprint frequency just to say the release will be done in N sprint.

    Is there any chance this kind of feature will appear in GreenHopper or maybe I missed a rapidBoard functionnality ?

    1. Hi, can I suggest that you please raise an issue for consideration by the GreenHopper development team? http://jira.atlassian.com/browse/ghs

  6. Taichi Watanabe

    Hello.
    Don't you have a plan merging some feature of "Classic burn down chart" to rapid board's burn down chart?

    I like these functions and hope we can use them as same as classic chart board.

    • Filtering feature (Actually, we draw and use each members' burn down chart)
    • "Required Daily Burndown Rate"(Orange line), and "Estimate Accuracy"(Yellow line)
    • Holiday setting (It seems current Bingo filter display all days (contain Saturday & Sunday) to X-axis)
    1. Hi, yes these are things we'd like to do, although I don't believe they have been allocated implementation timeframes as yet.

      Re non-working days, you may like to vote/watch/comment on GHS-4631 - Getting issue details... STATUS

       

      1. Nicole Hushka

        Are there feature requests for the other two items on Taichi's comments?  We are also missing the features of the required daily burndown rate and would prefer to see each member's burndown chart separately to see where the issues are.  Can you provide feedback plans for these?

      2. Pavel Bulanov

        I think the latest actual request for Non-working days is GHS-5117, which has more details than GHS-4631.

        Rosie, is there a request for filters references as well? It would be very useful to have filters for burndown, ideally ability to move same filters as on task board. E.g. I have filters for BA and QA tasks, and would like to see these burndown charts separate.

    I've successfully added tasks to a new sprint.

    In report mode, in burndown chart, I cannot see the diagonal grey "Guideline". It is present in the legend but it's nowhere to be seen on the chart itself.

    I used to work on JIRA + GH but that was a long time ago and it seems that things have changed. I browsed the GH 101 documentation.

    I do not recall setting up the effort (how many people will work) for the sprint, maybe that has something to do with it (although I don't think so)?

    Your help will be greatly appreciated.

    1. Armistral

      Hi Ran,

       

      I am having the same issue, did you ever get an answer to why this is happening?  (no guideline)

  8. eibrahim

    I have a status/column called "Ready To Deploy", how do I set it up so that the burndown chart will treat as done...  Right now the chart remaining values remains way above the guideline until we deploy and close all the issues...

    1. user-766ee

      Hey Emad,

      you need to configure the columns in your board.

      You need to drag&drop your "Ready To Deploy" status to the DONE column.

      After making this, all reports will treat the stories in "Ready To Deploy" as DONE/CLOSED.

       

  9. Pavel Bulanov

    Is there a plan to configure or at least add more columns for the detailed report under burndown chart? So far it has just task IDs and amount of hours reported, but doesn't state task headline and who updated the estimate. It makes usage of this table very inconvenient, I need to click on each task and open it in new tab for understanding the details.

    1. Stig Runar Vangen

      I would also like to see issue titles added to this list.

        Was it only requested by few people so far? No general request to have configuration of columns, not just add Summary (which would be good to start with, I agree)

    Can we use issues on the burndown chart?  I know traditionally a measure of effort is used (points / hours).  But I'm looking for an issue burndown representation.  The Classic board had it.

    1. Anonymous

      I am looking for the same issue burn-down chart which was available in classic. any information on this please?

  11. Anonymous

    Vote +1 for Hourly Effort Burn-down Charts please.

  12. Alf Hauke

    I really appreciate the burndown chart, be it for issues or based on story points - what i do strongly miss, though, is a way to display the charts for already closed sprints, e.g. for velocity considerations.

    The only way I found to proceed here is to define a filter for a closed sprint to at least see all the covered user stories/tasks, and then sum up the story points 'by hand' - is there an easier way for that? This is very important from a planning perspective.

    1. Does the Velocity Chart meet some of your needs?

      1. Alf Hauke

        yes it would exactly - unfortunately I can see only some of the sprints there (although released), and for the ones i do see there are no 'committed' story points... what do i have to do before/during a sprint to see those as well?

        1. (please see comments on Velocity Chart page)

    Hello.

    How can I load epic numbers in the sprint drop down field?

    I would like to know the story points that are completed /remaining for an epic, is there any other way to view this in the chard board?

    1. the Epic Report will be available in a near-future release

  14. Mikael Glentoft

    The guideline is missing in my burndown chart, anyone know how to make greenhopper render it?
    I'm using greenhopper 6.0.6.

    Hi All,

    In the burn down chart is there a way to view the comments entered when entering the time worked.

    Thanks

    Tony.

    Do the charts include data for isues that have a status of "closed?"

  17. Anonymous

    Adding filters to this report would be hugely helpful.  We want to see burndown charts for individual employees as well as the entire team.

    I'd like to be able to burndown unscheduled tickets (I shouldn't be forced to created a backlog fix version).

  19. Stig Runar Vangen

    I have an issue with sub-issues in a sprint. The parent issue has the story points field set to 0, while sub-issues has the actual values. This way of doing it worked fine in the classic version of the burndown chart, but in the updated version this set of issues count as 0 points. What I would expect was to see that subissues count against the total score as I finish them, but at it is now, they aren't even shown in the graph. Is there a best practice i've missed for this problem?

    1. Typically, teams tend to estimate stories (ie. parent issues) in Story Points, and track sub-tasks in hours. For more on this, please see Estimating an Issue

      1. Stig Runar Vangen

        "Tend to" is the important term here. Not everyone estimates their stories in the same way. From reading a lot of issues in your own Jira, some pages on this Confluence, Stack Overflow and so on, I see that my team and I are far from alone on this view. It would be nice if there was a setting for configuring a rapid board to include estimates from sub-issues as well. An another setting for aggregating values to the parent issue would be a welcome addition.

    The Burndown Chart keeps track of the added and removed issues from the sprint.
    Do we have access to this data from the issue navigator?
    I'd like to display an Filter Results gadget with added issues and removed issues, but whatever i try, i only get 'sprint field does not support historic searches'.

        Hi Rosie,

         

        Thanks for your reply. Will do (smile)

  21. Carl Abelin

    If I add time to an issue via 'Log work' and chose a different date than the one given in 'Date Started' the time is not used in the Burndown Chart nor listed in the list below the chart.

    Is this how it should be and in that case why? It messes things up if people forget to report time when they should.

  22. mother-goose

    The particularely unuseful feature of the burndown chart is in the list of stories beneath. It only shows the ID's but it'd be useful to have the summary field displayed.

    The 'Scope change' column is also redundant due to the 'Event' field, surely?

    I expect not everyone would agree so I'd suggest the best option would be to allow some level of customisation for what columns are displayed in this report.

      Please vote for GHS-7858 - Getting issue details... STATUS

      So far it has just a few votes which also seems strange to me

    2. Carl Abelin

      To be honest, I am happy with the state it is in now for the project I am currently working with, I only want it to show all my reported time. (wink)

      1. mother-goose

        Which I think is good - you could use the same functionality to simplify it further and remove the unwanted data if you needed to. As you can imagine, this works both ways I think, some scrum masters like to review with more information.

  23. Christen Lorensen

    When does the burndown, acualy burn down. And is there a way to change when it does it. Ie. we have the collums open > in progress > code review > test on dev > test on test > done. It only burns down on done. But the dev team i mostly done when it is at "test on dev", and we would like for it to burn down here. But again we would like to keep the QA tracks for testing as sometimes they can't test because it is technical, and the dev. has to test it, and move it. Otherwise they forget.

    1. mother-goose

      Hi Christen,

      Are you working with remote teams at any point in your product development? If not then I suggest the problem isn't with the tool but with the way you're working. That sounds inherently un-agile in ethos. You earn points for a story when a feature is either live (if you do continuous deployment like we do) or signed off and slated for release (which is what our mobile apps team has to do). The burn down chart logs when work is complete and it applies to the whole team rather than a specific role.

      This helps prevent a scenario where people say that "Well Dev got through 50 points this sprint, QA only got through 10". If you have scenarios like that it means that there is more Dev could do to help QA get the stories tested (be it helping write automated tests or whatever). If the team doesn't get points until the whole feature is delivered then there is more of an impetus for members of the team get a story through.

      Do you see what I mean? 

      Without meaning to be insulting, the situation your describing....that should never happen in an Agile team that's working well with each other. The only situation I see that happening is with remote teams.

      1. Christen Lorensen

        I would rather like to write to you personally so we don't have a conversation that bothering other people. But I have not found the option for pm.

        It is good points. And for sure we are "holding it wrong" (Apple quote). But sometimes that's the way things are, and you have to work with it. We are heading towards continuous deployment, but it is going to take some time getting there. Until then it would be nice if the software (jira/greenhopper) could handle other states than the "perfect world" state, and the progression towards it.
