During my last innovation sprint in my team at American Express, I decided to take on a project that brought together as many of the technologies and tools that I've learned over the course of the placement.

Inspired by the awkward process of sending out bi-weekly surveys to the engineers in the team, and having our scrummaster manually inputting the results into an excel spreadsheet. I decided to make a tool to make sprint retrospectives much more fluid and interactive.

Sprint Performance At A Glance

Easily spot areas where the team believes they aren't performing as well, creating opportunity for discussion and feedback. See important metrics such as sprint velocity, story carry-over and test coverage.

Metrics Calculated Using Real-Time Rally Data

Using the Rally REST and Lookback APIs, specific data can be extracted to any sprint metrics imaginable, such as planned velocity/actual velocity, story carry-over and test coverage. Accurate up to the exact moment the site is loaded.

Live Responses

See responses exactly when they are entered, increasing the sense of inclusion and interactivity. Everyone still feels a part of the process.
