Explanation:
Box 1: Velocity
Widget1: Identify team capacity capabilities and show the amount of work each team can complete.
The Velocity widget is designed specifically to track a team's capacity and progress sprint after sprint. It helps visualize the amount of work a team can complete by displaying the total planned work versus completed work over a series of iterations. Scrum masters and project managers can use this information to estimate future capacity and forecast the product backlog effectively.
Box 2: Cycle Time
Widget2: Display how long it takes for a team to complete work items once the team begins working on them.
Cycle Time measures the time it takes to complete work items once active work has commenced, which is a different metric than a team's overall capacity and ability to complete future work.
Box 3: Code Tile
Widget3: Display the number of recent changes within the main branch of a repository.
In Azure DevOps, you can use the Code Tile widget to visualize repository activity directly on your dashboard.
Key Features
Activity at a Glance: The tile provides a quick numerical view of activity, which is more detailed than the standard repository overview.
Direct Drill-down: Clicking the tile takes you directly to the commit history for that branch to review specific changes.
