Velocity should be Burndown, velocity is a prediction of what you can finish it's not what has been delivered so far. "Once your team has completed a few sprints, they can use their velocity to forecast how much of the backlog they can finish within upcoming sprints" https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/report/dashboards/team-velocity?view=azure-devops So: Burndown Release Pipeline Overview Query Tile

Burndown is the correct answer. Explanations: Generally in scrum development. Velocity is "how fast work is being done". Burndown is a "comparison of completed work versus planned work." Back to the question: On the dashboard [ 'Number 1':'Required Data' ] we have "A comparison between work planned and work delivered". Confirming option-1 answer to be Burndown

Exactly as you say. Velocity is an average based on previous sprints. So if I deliver 10 story points in sprint 1 and 14 story points in sprint 2, I could* have an average velocity of 12 story points. This helps me to estimate a reasonable number of story points in my future sprints. Over time this number will become more accurate. (*This example is simplified, since you will also have work not completed or completed late, which affects velocity). Now a burndown chart on the other hand, shows the remaining story points in a sprint as compared to the story points being delivered in that sprint. It helps the team to see if they are able to finish te remaining work in time. So indeed I would say: Burndown Release Pipeline Overview Query Tile

Wrong, velocity is not a prediction, although a lot of PMs use it wrongly that way. Velocity shows you how much work you did in a sprint. You can average multiple velocity values of previous 2,4,6 sprints to obtain an average velocity that can be used as a predictor for the upcoming sprint. Over time this number will become more accurate, if and only the team composition or context of work do not change. In comparison, a burndown chart shows you how much work you have done in the current sprint and how much is left to do. It is used only for the current sprint, not for sprints already delivered.

The big one is Velocity over Burndown. It's velocity IMHO. You're looking at the result that has occurred and this tells you work completed vs work planned. Nothing here about remaining work against time.

Burndown Release Pipeline Overview Query Tile Velocity used to compare the previous Sprint . Microsoft definition: The Velocity widget tracks a team's capacity to deliver work sprint after sprint. You configure the widget by selecting a team, a work item type, an aggregation field, and the number of sprints. The widget takes advantage of Analytics data. You can track the velocity for a single team, not multiple teams. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/report/dashboards/widget-catalog?view=azure-devops#velocity-widget

1. Velocity - the previous (delivered) sprint is what we are talking about here. "It allows you to compare the work delivered against your plan and track work that's completed late."

Velocity would not be used for this purpose. It is a planning metric rather than analysis. I agree with lglars

velocity is correct read the below link : "Displayed planned work for iterations: Check this box to display the amount of work planned for an iteration at the start of the iteration. This is useful for comparing your planned work to actual deliverables. By default, the count of planned work begins on the start date of the iteration." ------ https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/report/dashboards/team-velocity?view=azure-devops
