Sprint Burndown Gadget - Trouble Having it Burn Down my Completed Subtasks

[Timothy Vensel]

Some basic info about my Sprint configuration:

• I currently have my Sprint hooked into my Sprint Burndown Gadget.
• I have two Epics within this Sprint. 
• Each Epic has 10 Stories.
• Each Story has a varying number of Subtasks. 
• My board's estimation statistic is Storypoints. 

I have been unable to figure out how to have my Subtask's factor into my Sprint Burndown Gadget's burndown. I have tried altering the estimate statistic from hours, to relative size with no results. I am seeing the red line, however, it doesn't burn down when I mark subtasks as complete. Help is appreciated.

You should ideally be estimating at the story level rather than the subtask level. If your sub-tasks are stories in their own right then you need to revisit how you are managing your backlog and story-breakdown.
