The job it does

At sprint planning: fit the work to the team you actually have, and see what will carry over before the sprint starts. It comes with its own checks, so after you change it you can see at a glance that it still does the job.

The brief: Sprint plan

A sprint planned against real capacity: people, days off and focus factor, a goal, the stories that carry it, and what waits in the backlog. Put your own team and backlog in and keep the sprint inside the line.

Done when
  • The sprint fits the team’s capacity
  • The sprint has a goal and stories to meet it
  • The sprint uses at least 70% of capacity
Sprint plan: Partner app: sprint 10

Goal: Partners can reorder last week’s basket in two taps, offline included

Capacity: 4 people × 10 days (minus 1 days off) = 39 person-days × focus 0.65 × 1 points a day = 25.4 points. Committed: 21 points in 4 stories: fits. Burndown preview: at this capacity the sprint burns down by the last day.
