Question

Which chart shows the total number of story points completed through the end of each iteration?

Options

  • AIteration Burndown chart
  • BCumulative story point Burndown chart
  • CDaily Burndown chart
  • DBurnup chart

Explanation

A Cumulative story point Burndown chart (also called a release burndown) tracks the total story points remaining across multiple iterations at the release level, allowing teams to see cumulative progress — i.e., how many total points have been completed by the end of each iteration. This is distinct from an Iteration Burndown (which tracks remaining work within a single iteration day by day) and a Daily Burndown (within-iteration, daily granularity). While a Burnup chart also shows cumulative completion, in the context of this question the cumulative release-level burndown is the identified answer.
