More Accurate Burn Down Chart
Your burn down graph doesn't seem to be accurate. It only reflects "completed" stories, and does not account for completed tasks of a story.
All burn down charts I have worked with, they take the total points of a user story, and divides the number of tasks. This more accurate calculation reflects a burn down chart.
Otherwise you get what we have which is a very flat "stair case" burn down chart, where progress is only reflected when stories are completed.
Tasks should be rewarded on a burn down chart for completed.

Hi,
Thanks for the feedback.
Currently we have 2 options at Burndown chart, “Story Points”, which as you mentioned only moves when story moves to Done or accepted state.
Second Burndown is for Tasks (based on hours estimates).
it is interesting option to have a graph, like you have explained that shows incremental progress based on number of tasks.
We will discuss with our team and hopefully will implement this soon.

This incremental burn down chart will be included in our next release. Our current release contents for May are kind of already finalized and being worked on. But we will try to get this burn down done for release coming up in June hopefully.

Burndown charts by completed tasks only is a must for any project tracker, I don't understand why yodiz doesn't have this feature yet.

Thank you. However I am disappointed that this is not already implemented as that is how burn down charts in the sense of them work.
Might be a deal breaker for us.
Thanks.
