Agile Sprint Velocity Planner Description

What Is Agile Sprint Velocity?

Agile sprint velocity is a metric used to measure a team’s output over time. It quantifies how many story points are completed per sprint and helps estimate the team's capacity for future work.

How to Calculate Sprint Velocity

Use this simple formula:

Velocity = Total Story Points Completed / Number of Sprints

We recommend averaging across 3–5 sprints to smooth out variations and anomalies.

Factors That Affect Velocity

• Team Composition: Additions, departures, or role changes
• Work Complexity: Estimation inaccuracies and technical debt
• Availability: Time off, public holidays, and part-time contributors

Edge Case Considerations

• Mid-sprint team changes: Restart averaging after the team stabilizes
• Carry-over stories: Include only completed points to avoid skewing the metric
• Cross-functional teams: Track velocity independently for each team
• Short sprints (≤2 days): Avoid due to volatility
• Inflated estimations: Watch for velocity manipulation by padding story points

Mini Case Studies

Case Study A – Remote Dev Team

• Team Size: 7 members
• Sprint Results: 18, 22, 20, 24 story points
• Average Velocity:

  (18 + 22 + 20 + 24) / 4 = 21

This value helped the team plan future sprints with confidence and accuracy.

Case Study B – Post-Vacation Sprint

• Normal Velocity: 30 points
• Available Capacity: 60%
• Adjusted Velocity:

  30 * 0.6 = 18 story points

Planning to this adjusted value avoided team overload and ensured consistent delivery.
