Exam CAPM topic 1 question 459 discussion

This chart is specifically designed to show the amount of work completed versus the total work remaining over a specified time period. It's commonly used in Agile methodologies to track progress within a sprint or iteration. FYI : A Kanban chart is a visual tool used to manage work in progress, but it doesn't focus on completed work.

C. It asks, "what work has been completed." Kanban will show complete work details, while burndown will just show the amount of completed work.

Scrum teams use burndown charts, Scrumban teams use Kanban. At least that is my understanding.

Explanation: Burndown Chart: This chart tracks the amount of work remaining in a sprint or project over time. It visually represents the progress made, showing how much work has been completed versus how much is left. It is particularly useful for understanding the team's velocity and whether they are on track to complete their work by the end of the sprint. Other Options: A. Gantt Chart: Primarily used for project scheduling, it shows tasks over time but does not specifically indicate completed work in a way that is useful for agile teams. B. Feature Chart: Typically used to track features in a product backlog, but it may not provide a clear view of completed work in a specific timeframe. C. Kanban Chart: While it shows the flow of work and the current status of tasks, it may not specifically highlight completed work over a set period like a burndown chart does.

Burndown chart visually represents the work remaining to be completed in a sprint. By looking at the difference between the starting point and the current point on the chart, you can determine the amount of work completed during the week. Gantt chart is more commonly used in traditional project management and focuses on task dependencies and timelines. Feature chart is not a standard chart in agile methodologies. Kanban chart shows the workflow of work items but doesn't explicitly track work completed over a specific period.
