What is Burndown Chart in Jira?

Jira Burndown Charts can be regarded as project trackers. They serve to be visual aids, helpful in representing the overall progress of the project. Burndown charts in Jira also help in planning as well as tracking sprints. These reveal the total amount of work that has been completed already in a particular sprint along with the total amount of work that is still pending to be completed.

Therefore, Burndown diagrams can be very helpful in understanding and improving teams’ project planning and in communicating project goals to customers in the best possible way. This is how sprints are planned effectively.
