Team Dashboard provides a visualization of the team's progress on stories over a given period. It provides team predictability charts and helps you plan the team's capacity for the upcoming sprints. In addition, it provides details of all the team members.

Navigate to All > Agile Development > Dashboards and select Agile 2.0 Team Dashboard.

  • View progress of the team by work items
  • Analyze the time taken for stories to move from one state to another
  • Analyze sprint performance of the team
  • Analyze trends in sprint variance of the team comparing completed work to expected capacity and committed work

Indicators

Scrum: Scrum: Average Story State Duration

Generates data that is displayed in the Average Cycle Time per State report.

Scrum: Story State Duration

Generates data that is displayed in the Time in State report.

Scrum: Total stories in a sprint

Generated data that is displayed in the Active Stories by State report.

  • Scrum: State

Data visualizations

The Team Dashboard reports are segregated into the following three tabs:
  • Work item progress: Reports of Active Stories by State, Time in State, and Average Cycle Time per State
  • Sprint Performance: Reports of Velocity History and Sprint Variance
  • Team Members: List of all the members of the team
    Note: For existing customers who upgrade to the latest version, the list of the team members appears in both the Work item progress and Team Members tabs but only one of these locations would display the accurate information. You can remove this widget from the Work item progress tab to avoid this issue. For more information on how to remove a widget, see Edit a responsive dashboard.
If you are upgrading from version 1.0.2 or earlier of Performance Analytics Content Pack for Agile 2.0, then install this dashboard from Solution Library to upgrade its layout and access the following visualizations:
  • Velocity History
  • Velocity by Type
  • Sprint Variance
  • Story Cycle Time
For more information, see Upgrading the layout of Agile 2.0 dashboards.

Active Stories by State

Bar chart

Bar chart

View the total number of stories in each state of a story, for example, testing, work in progress, and testing.

Time in State

Stacked bar chart

Stacked bar chart bar-stacked Created with Sketch.

View the time in hours that the team spends in each state of a story.

Average Cycle Time per State

Line chart Line chart

View how the work in progress is trending over time and what are the most significant cycle times.

Title Type Description

Velocity History

Bar chartBar chart

Gain an insight on the overall velocity of the team for the past 10 sprints. Understand if the team is achieving a stable, predictable velocity, and is meeting the commitments.

The Team Velocity History report comprises the following series per sprint that can be hidden or displayed based on your preference:
  • Team Capacity: Indicates the team capacity (in story points) for the sprint.
  • Committed Story Points: Indicates the number of story points committed by the team for the sprint.
  • Completed Story Points: Indicates the number of story points completed by the team for the sprint.
  • Average Completed Points: Indicates the average number of story points completed by the team for the sprint.
  • Linear (Actual): Indicates if the amount of completed work is trending up, trending down, or relatively stable over sprints.
Velocity by Type

Stacked bar chart

Stacked bar chart bar-stacked Created with Sketch.

Analyze the way your team's velocity changes over time and compare the team's strategic workload with operational or other types of workload.

The bar charts have two stacks that show the sum of the story points of the following types of completed stories:
  • Regular stories
  • Stories added to the unified backlog from the items in the triage board

Clicking any bar would take you to its corresponding sprint details.

Data displayed in this report is of the past 10 sprints with the earliest sprint on the left.

Note: This report is not available by default. You can add it from Scrum custom charts to your dashboard. For more information, see Edit a responsive dashboard.

Sprint Variance

Bar chart

Bar chart

Analyze the percentage variance of the team compared to the capacity and committed points, for the past 10 sprints.

The Team Sprint Variance report comprises the following series per sprint that can be hidden or displayed based on your preference:
  • Completed to Capacity: Indicates the percentage of completed work compared to the expected capacity for the sprint.
  • Completed to Committed: Indicates the percentage of completed work compared to the committed work of the team for the sprint.

Table 5. Cycle Time
Title Type Description
Story Cycle Time Bubble chart

Bubble chart

Identify the time taken for each story, which the team has worked on, to move from an in-progress state to completion.

Each bubble on the graph represents a story. The height of the bubble from the x-axis shows how long that story took to move from an in-progress state to completion. The size of the story bubbles are relative to each other based on their story points.

You can compare the cycle times of stories with different story points and analyze the trend in the time taken by the team to complete them. Identify the stories that took longer to complete and analyze the reasons so that you can chart an action plan to reduce the team's cycle time in the future.

Hovering your mouse cursor over a bubble displays the following details about that story:
  • Story points
  • Date the story is moved to completion
  • Total cycle time (in days) of the story
  • Number of days that the story was in the Work in progress state
  • Number of days that the story was in the Ready for testing state
  • Number of days that the story was in the Testing state

From the Story State section towards the right of the report, you can filter the report to view the cycle time of the stories for the selected states. The chart displays the cycle time for each story as the cumulative sum of all duration of the selected states.

If there are too many stories at any area of the chart and the bubbles appear crowded on the report, you can zoom in that particular area of the report for a clearer view.

Note: The stories shown in this chart are the ones that the team has completed in the past 30 days.
