A burndown chart shows the actual and estimated amount of work to be done in a sprint. The horizontal x-axis in a burndown chart indicates time, and the vertical y-axis indicates cards (issues).

Use a burndown chart to track the total work remaining and to project the likelihood of achieving the sprint goal. By tracking the remaining work throughout the iteration, a team can manage its progress and respond accordingly.

 

See Viewing the Burndown Chart.
