燃燒中的狀態 (#4 – Burning Down)

Comic Agilé 漫畫原創作者的話

With the global stock markets plummeting during the last week, the visual resemblances to burndown charts are clear.

A mature Scrum team has a good understanding of their velocity. The flow of these delivered Story Points can be seen as the actual burndown and can be compared to the predicted “ideal” burndown line on a sprint burndown chart.

There are numerous reasons for a team struggling to follow the ideal burndown; overcommitment, dependencies, PO unavailability, and an unrealistic DoD are examples. The burndown reflects all these issues, and it’s our responsibility as Scrum Masters or Agile Coaches to help teams overcome the impediments.

隨著上周（COVID-19 爆發之後）全球股市暴跌，（股市）看起來與燃盡圖的非常類似。

一個成熟的 Scrum 團隊非常了解他們的速度 (Velocity)。 這些交付的故事點數 (Story Points) 的流動 (flow) 可以被視為實際（進度）的燃盡，並且可以與 Sprint 燃盡圖上預測的「期望工作進度」（燃盡）線進行比較。

團隊在致力達到「期望工作進度」時會遇到許多挑戰； 過度的承諾、相依關係 (dependencies)、產品負責人 (Product Owner) 一直沒有空、與不切實際的完成的定義「Definition of Done, DoD」等。燃盡圖反映了這所有問題。作為 Scrum Master 或是敏捷教練 (Agile Coach)，幫助團隊克服障礙是我們的責任。
