What is represented in a Cumulative Flow Diagram?

  1. Time taken for each team member's task

  2. Single chart showing feature backlog, work-in-progress, and completed features over time

  3. Customer satisfaction metrics over several sprints

  4. Daily team meeting outcomes and action items

The correct answer is: Single chart showing feature backlog, work-in-progress, and completed features over time

A Cumulative Flow Diagram (CFD) primarily represents the flow of work through various stages in a project over time, illustrating key metrics like the feature backlog, work-in-progress, and completed features. This visualization provides teams with valuable insights into their workflow efficiency, identifying bottlenecks or areas where work may be piling up. By examining the flow of tasks through different statuses, teams can more effectively manage their capacity and make informed decisions to optimize their processes. The other options do not capture the essence of a CFD accurately. For instance, while individual team member task times could be valuable metrics, they are not depicted in a CFD. Similarly, customer satisfaction metrics are not a focus of the cumulative flow, and daily meeting outcomes are not captured in a way that would be useful on a CFD. Thus, the correct answer illustrates the primary function of a CFD in Agile project management.
