Sprint Burndown (hours)

Displays hour burn-down for the specific sprint.

Data Source

  • SharePoint List
    List: Tasks
    Fields: Date Completed, Estimation, ID, Due Date, Task Status

    CAML:

  • Aggregation:
    Group by: Day

    Day field is defined in the requestSuccess JavaScript handler.

    Aggregations:
    Hours = sum of EstimationTasks = count of IDDueDate = max of TaskDueDate
    Date = max of DateCompleted

  • Advanced:

    var handlers = {};
    
    handlers.requestSuccess = function (data, logger) {
        $.each(data.items, function () {
            if (this.TaskStatus == 'Completed') {
                this.Day = this.DateCompleted.getDate();
            }
        });
        return true;
    }
    
    handlers.aggregationSuccess = function (data, logger) {
        var total = 0
        $.each(data.groups, function () {
            total += this.Hours;
        });
    
        data.groups = data.groups.filter(function (value) {
            return Boolean(value.value);
        });
    
        var remaining = total;
        $.each(data.groups, function () {
            this.RemainingHours = remaining;
            remaining -= this.Hours;
        });
    
        return true;
    }

    In the requestSuccess handler we define Day field for each task and populate it with the day of month when the task has been completed. This field allows us to group tasks by day. In the aggregationSuccess handler we calculate remaining hours for each group of tasks and remove opened tasks from the array of groups.

        });
    
        config.categoryAxis.max = config.series[0].data[0].DueDate;
    
        window.config = config;
        return true;
    
    }

    Here we define additional series for Ideal Trend and Completed Work diagrams with their own chart types: line and column.

Project Burndown (hours)

Displays hour burn-down for the project (all tasks).

Data Source

  • SharePoint List
    List: Tasks
    Fields: Date Completed, Estimation, ID, Start Date, Due Date, Task Status

    Aggregation:
    Group by: Day

    Day field is defined in the requestSuccess JavaScript handler.

  • Aggregations:
    Hours = sum of EstimationTasks = count of IDDueDate = max of TaskDueDate
    Date = max of DateCompleted

  • Advanced:

    var handlers = {};
    
    handlers.requestSuccess = function (data, logger) {
        $.each(data.items, function () {
            if (this.TaskStatus == 'Completed') {
                this.Day = this.DateCompleted.getDate();
            }
        });
        return true;
    }
    
    handlers.aggregationSuccess = function (data, logger) {
        var total = 0
        $.each(data.groups, function () {
            total += this.Hours;
        });
    
        data.groups = data.groups.filter(function (value) {
            return Boolean(value.value);
        });
    
        var remaining = total;
        $.each(data.groups, function () {
            this.RemainingHours = remaining;
            remaining -= this.Hours;
        });
    
        return true;
    }

    In the requestSuccess handler we define Day field for each task and populate it with the day of month when the task has been completed. This field is used only to group data by day, so if your project takes more than one month, you should concatenate the day with the month to group data correctly: this.Day = this.DateCompleted.getDate() + ‘_’ + this.DateCompleted.getMonth(). In the aggregationSuccess handler we calculate remaining hours for each group of tasks and remove opened tasks from the array of groups.

Sprint Burn Rate (hours)

Displays how much work remains in a sprint backlog.

  • Aggregation:
    Group by: empty

    As you can see the empty field doesn’t exists in the data source. We use it here to calculate aggregate values over all rows in the data set because for each row it equals to “undefined”, thus we get a single group containing all items.

    Aggregations:
    Hours = sum of EstimationTasks = count of ID

  • Advanced:

    var handlers = {};
    handlers.aggregationSuccess = function (data, logger) {
        var hours = 0;
        var tasks = 0;
    
        $.each(data.items, function () {
            if (this.TaskStatus == 'Completed') {
                hours += this.Estimation;
                tasks++;
            }
        });
    
        data.items = [{ Hours: data.groups[0].Hours, Tasks: data.groups[0].Tasks, Category: 'Required' },
                    { Hours: hours, Tasks: tasks, Category: 'Actual' }];
        data.groups[0].items = [data.items[0]];
        data.groups[0].value = 'Required';
    
        data.groups.push({
            value: 'Actual',
            items: [data.items[1]]
        });
    
        return true;
    }

    The code above calculates completed and remaining hours and replaces the data with calculated values.
