"Not Done" Bucket Review

"Not Done" Bucket Review

Purpose

Not Done Bucket Review shows how work that is not done at the end of an iteration is transformed during a sprint or release. Transformation are as follows:

  • Blocked means there work stoppages have place;

  • Not Done means items do not get a "Done" status and not blocked;

  • Done means items get a "Done" status according to the 'Done' column in Project Settings>Data Sources>Task Tracking system>Workflows.

How metric helps

Not Done Bucket Review helps to reveal issues in preparing scope for development. For example, it shows how long a blocked scope exists in an iteration so that it may explain why a plan for the iteration is not done.
