Explain what velocity in scrum is and how it is measured?..

Answer / Vipin Roy

Velocity in Scrum refers to the average amount of work a team can handle during an iteration (Sprint). It is calculated by adding up the story points of all completed Sprints and dividing the total by the number of Sprints. Velocity helps teams plan future work by providing an estimate of what they can accomplish in upcoming Sprints.
