Which of these is the best example of an effective update to share at a stand up meeting?

 

Yesterday I debugged an issue with time zone changes, and I worked with the UX specialist on the cart functionality.

Yesterday I finished writing unit tests for the new search control, and today I'm going to code it. I have a question about the interaction under certain conditions which I need to talk to the product owner about after the meeting.

Today I'm going to improve the code for uploading data, and I have no obstacles.

Question 3

You are the Scrum Master of a team working on a solution that requires a lot of new code and technical facets--more than the usual. Several days into the 10-day sprint, the number of completed story points has not decreased. Overall, things are going fine, but some team members and outside stakeholders are anxious about the apparent lack of progress on the burndown chart. What might you do?

 

Burndown charts are required for Scrum teams. Keep it up.

If the team is being negatively impacted, consider scrapping the burndown chart.

Keep the burndown chart displayed. The team needs to be reminded of unfinished items in the backlog.

If the story points are difficult to calculate, keep using the chart until it becomes easier.

Calculate the burn up rate.

Move items from design to delivery more slowly in order to spread out any potential problems.

Increase the number of feedback loops.
