Feature progress rollup sample report

  • Стаття

Azure DevOps Services | Azure DevOps Server 2022 - Azure DevOps Server 2019

This article shows you how to create a stacked bar report to display progress of Features based on completed child User Stories. The report displays the percentage complete by rollup of Story Points for a given set of active Features. An example is shown in the following image.

You can view similar progress bar charts from your backlog by adding a rollup column. To learn how, see Display rollup progress or totals.

Note

This article assumes you read Overview of Sample Reports using OData Queries and have a basic understanding of Power BI.

Prerequisites

Sample queries

Feature progress queries the WorkItems entity to get the current state of progress.

Note

To determine available properties for filter or report purposes, see Metadata reference for Azure Boards. You can filter your queries or return properties using any of the Property values under an EntityType or NavigationPropertyBinding Path values available with an EntitySet. Each EntitySet corresponds to an EntityType. For more information about the data type of each value, review the metadata provided for the corresponding EntityType.

Review feature progress based on an area path

Copy and paste the following Power BI query directly into the Get Data > Blank Query window. For more information, see Overview of sample reports using OData queries.

let
   Source = OData.Feed ("https://analytics.dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_odata/v3.0-preview/WorkItems?"
        &"$filter=WorkItemType eq 'Feature' "
            &"and State ne 'Removed' "
            &"and startswith(Area/AreaPath,'{areapath}') "
            &"and Descendants/any()"
            &"&$select=WorkItemId,Title,Area,Iteration,AssignedTo,WorkItemType,State,AreaSK"
            &"&$expand=Descendants( "
            &"$apply=filter(WorkItemType eq 'User Story') " 
                &"/groupby((StateCategory), "
                &"aggregate(StoryPoints with sum as TotalStoryPoints)) "
            &")  "
    ,null, [Implementation="2.0",OmitValues = ODataOmitValues.Nulls,ODataVersion = 4])

Substitution strings and query breakdown

Substitute the following strings with your values. Don't include brackets {} with your substitution. For example if your organization name is "Fabrikam", replace {organization} with Fabrikam, not {Fabrikam}.

  • {organization} - Your organization name
  • {project} - Your team project name, or omit /{project} entirely, for a cross-project query
  • {areapath} - Your Area Path. Example format: Project/Level1/Level2.

Query breakdown

The following table describes each part of the query.

Query part

Description

$filter=WorkItemType eq 'Feature'

Return Features.

and State ne 'Cut'

Omit Features marked as Cut.

and startswith(Area/AreaPath,'{areapath}')

Return work items under a specific Area Path. Replacing with Area/AreaPath eq '{areapath}' returns items at a specific Area Path.
To filter by Team Name, use the filter statement Teams/any(x:x/TeamName eq '{teamname})'.

and Descendants/any()

Filter out any work items that have at least one or "any" descendant. Includes all Features with at least one Child work item. To get all work items with their descendants, even if they don't have any, run a query without the Descendants/any() filter. To omit Features that don't have child User Stories, replace with any(d:d/WorkItemType eq 'User Story').

For all work items with and without descendants:

$filter=endswith(Area/AreaPath,'suffix')
&$select=WorkItemId,Title,WorkItemType,State,Area, Descendants
&$expand=Descendants($select=WorkItemId)

For all work items with at least one descendant:

$filter=endswith(Area/AreaPath, 'suffix')and Descendants/any()
&$select=WorkItemId,Title,WorkItemType,State,Area, Descendants
&$expand=Descendants($select=WorkItemId)

&$select=WorkItemId, Title, WorkItemType, State

Select properties to return.

&$expand=Descendants(

Start of expand Descendants clause

$apply=filter(WorkItemType eq 'User Story')

Filter the descendants. Only include User Stories (omit Tasks and Bugs).

/groupby((StateCategory),

Group the rollup by StateCategory. For more information on State Categories, see How workflow states and state categories are used in Backlogs and Boards.

aggregate(StoryPoints with sum as TotalStoryPoints))

Aggregate sum of Story Points.

)

Close Descendants() clause.

Review feature progress for a team

The following query is the same as the one used above, except it filters by Team Name rather than Area Path.

Copy and paste the following Power BI query directly into the Get Data > Blank Query window. For more information, see Overview of sample reports using OData queries.

let
   Source = OData.Feed ("https://analytics.dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_odata/v3.0-preview/WorkItems?"
        &"$filter=WorkItemType eq 'Feature' "
            &"and State ne 'Cut' "
            &"and (Teams/any(x:x/TeamName eq '{teamname}) or Teams/any(x:x/TeamName eq '{teamname}) or Teams/any(x:x/TeamName eq '{teamname}) "
            &"and Descendants/any() "
        &"&$select=WorkItemId,Title,WorkItemType,State,AreaSK "
        &"&$expand=Descendants( "
            &"$apply=filter(WorkItemType eq 'User Story') "
                &"/groupby((StateCategory), "
                &"aggregate(StoryPoints with sum as TotalStoryPoints)) "
            &")  "
    ,null, [Implementation="2.0",OmitValues = ODataOmitValues.Nulls,ODataVersion = 4]) 
in
    Source

Transform the data in Power Query Editor

The query returns several columns that you need to expand before you can use them to create a report. Any entity pulled in using an OData $expand statement returns a record with potentially several fields. Expand the record to flatten the entity into its fields.

For the Feature Progress report, you'll need to carry out the following transforms:

  • Expand the Descendants column into two columns: Descendants.StateCategory and Descendants.TotalStoryPoints
  • Apply Pivot Column transform on Descendants.StateCategory column to separate out individual State categories
  • Replace null values in all pivoted columns.
  • Add a custom column to represent percentage complete. The custom column will display errors if there are any null columns in the pivoted State columns.

To learn how, see the following sections in Transform Analytics data to generate Power BI reports:

Note

In this example, the State values for User Story include Proposed, In Progress, and Completed.

Close the query and apply your changes

Once you've completed all your data transformations, choose Close & Apply from the Home menu to save the query and return to the Report tab in Power BI.

Create the stacked bar chart report

  1. In Power BI, choose Stacked bar chart report under Visualizations.

    Screenshot of Power BI Visualizations and Fields selections for Feature Progress stacked bar chart report.

  2. Add Title to Y-Axis.

  3. Add PercentComplete to X-Axis, right-click and select Sum.

The example report displays.
