What is the one important metric that Burnup charts show that Burndown charts do not?
A
Burnup chats shows velocity
B
Burnup charts show the number of iterations
C
Burnup charts show total work
D
Burnup charts show project duration
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A burn-down chart shows the amount of work remaining on a project (the remaining effort), whereas a burn-up chart shows how much work has been completed and the total scope of the project.

Detailed explanation-2: -A burn down chart shows how much work is remaining to be done in the project, whereas a burn up shows how much work has been completed, and the total amount of work. These charts are particularly widely used in Agile and scrum software project management.

Detailed explanation-3: -A line representing the remaining project work slowly decreases and approaches zero over time. However, this type of chart doesn’t show clearly the effects of scope change on a project. If a client adds work mid-project the scope change would appear as negative progress by the development team on a Burn Down Chart.
