What Is a Burn-Down-Chart?

A burn-down chart is a graphic that visualizes the project progress of a product, sprints or releases in a curve. The chart is updated daily and shows how much work is left at each point in time. By means of a trend line based on the past estimated values, the expected end of the project in time can be predicted or indicative deviations from the schedule can be forecast.
