What is the Sprint Report?

The Sprint Report shows the work completed or pushed back to the backlog in each sprint. This helps you determine if your team is overcommitting, or if there is excessive scope creep.
👇 Here’s an example of a Sprint Report.
An example of a Sprint Report in Jira. The Sprint report appears in the top section. Below the Sprint report is the Status Report, which shows a list of issues, their status, and their story points.
Use the Sprint Report during:
  • Stand up to see if your team is on track to meet its sprint goal
  • Team retrospectives to see if your team committed to the right amount of work
You and your team can use the Sprint Report to:
✔ Gain a better understanding of how much work your team can complete. This helps you better plan your next sprint so everyone's workload is manageable.
✔ Identify and address scope creep as soon as it begins happening.
✔ Visually represent sprint work during a team retrospective.
