Keep an eye on the burndown chart if you are still on track. If not discuss with the product owner if backlog items have to be added or removed.

A burn down chart is a graphical representation of work left to do versus time.
The outstanding work (or backlog) is often on the vertical axis, with time along the horizontal.

That is, it is a run chart of outstanding work.
It is useful for predicting when all of the work will be completed.

The hour burndown chart provides you with the following information:

  1. Actual Hours — The number of hours remaining until the version release date.

  2. Planned Hours — The minus of the previous planned hours and the current actual hours.

  3. Ideal Hours — The ideal burndown. This is computed with the remaining estimates, not the original estimates of the hours remaining at the version’s start date.

  4. Daily Completed — The total time worked by the team (the current actual hours).
