Burndown or Burnup Charts?
burndown burnup Scrum
When should a burndown chart be used over a burnup chart? I know the difference between the two but I’m confused as to why I would want to display both.
I’m working in a Scrum envrionment and I want to make visible the progres of my current sprint. Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.
Burndown charts tend to be used as sprint burndowns, that is they are used to show progress of the current sprint. Burnup charts are often used as Release burnups that is they show the progress of a release over multiple sprints. You tend to burndown in a sprint and burnup towards a release. Saying this, there’s no real harm in which charts you use, as long as the required information is visible this is the important thing.
