🚀 Agile Best Practices
Stable Velocity
Aim for consistent velocity rather than increasing it. Fluctuations of ±15% are normal for most teams.
Team Consistency
Velocity is team-specific. Changing team members requires re-establishing baseline velocity.
Story Points
Use relative estimation (Fibonacci sequence) rather than time-based estimates for better accuracy.
Regular Refinement
Spend 10% of each sprint refining backlog items to improve estimation accuracy.
Capacity Planning
Commit to 70-80% of your average velocity to account for unexpected work and spikes.
Trend Analysis
Look for patterns in velocity changes rather than focusing on individual sprint variations.
📈 Common Velocity Patterns
| Pattern | Description | Recommended Action |
|---|---|---|
| Steady Velocity | Consistent velocity across sprints (±15%) | Continue current practices |
| Increasing Velocity | Gradual improvement over 3+ sprints | Review estimation practices |
| Decreasing Velocity | Declining trend over 3+ sprints | Identify blockers or scope changes |
| Erratic Velocity | Large fluctuations between sprints | Improve story refinement |
| Low Velocity | Consistently below team capacity | Review estimation scale |
| High Velocity | Consistently exceeding capacity | Validate story point calibration |
Note: Velocity should be used as a planning tool, not a performance metric.
Dark Mode
Note: Velocity is a planning tool, not a performance metric. Many factors can affect velocity including team changes, technical debt, and external dependencies. Use this as a guide rather than a strict target.
