Required activities for tracking tasks

For the Task Progress report to be useful and accurate, the team must perform the following activities:

  • Define Tasks.

  • Change the State of each Task to Closed as the team completes it.

  • (optional) Specify the Iteration and Area paths of each Task if you want to filter by those fields.

Interpret the report

You should expect the Task Progress report to vary based on where you are in your product development cycle. Early iterations should show a gradual increase in the number of active Tasks. Iterations that are near the end of a product cycle should show a wide band of closed Tasks.

You can review the report to determine the progress over time or during an iteration. Specifically, you can find answers to the following questions:

  • Is the team making progress toward closing Tasks?

  • Is the team adding work?

    For information about healthy and unhealthy versions of the report, see Remaining Work.

Update and customize the report

You can update the Task Progress report by opening the report in Office Excel and changing the filter options for the PivotTable report. You can customize this report to support other views as the following table describes.
