Sprint Goal: Reduce checkout abandonment by 20% Duration: 2 weeks Team Size: 5 engineers Generated: 2026-05-05 14:30 BST Connector Used: linear
Capacity Summary
Headline numbers
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Base capacity | 130 story points |
| Capacity hits | -16 story points |
| Buffer reserved (20%) | -22 story points |
| Available capacity | 92 story points |
Per-engineer breakdown
| Engineer | Available SP | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Engineer 1 (Sarah) | 22 | Full availability |
| Engineer 2 (Marcus) | 18 | 2 days PTO mid-sprint |
| Engineer 3 (Priya) | 22 | Full availability |
| Engineer 4 (David) | 12 | On-call week 1 (50% reduction) |
| Engineer 5 (Lin) | 18 | 2 days at conference week 2 |
Assumptions used
- Baseline velocity: 13 points/engineer/week (calibrated from last 3 sprints: 12.8, 13.2, 13.0 average)
- Buffer applied: 20%
- Capacity hits: 4 PTO days, 5 on-call days, 2 conference days
Confidence: High
Historical velocity provided and capacity hits are confirmed in the team calendar.
Caveats
- Unplanned production incidents could reduce on-call engineer's capacity further
- New starter onboarding could pull from more senior engineers' time
- Sprint review prep (~4 hours team-wide) is included in the buffer

Total: 87 story points (5 points unallocated as additional buffer)
Definition of done
- All A/B test variants are deployed behind feature flags
- Analytics events fire correctly for funnel tracking
- All bug fixes have regression tests
- Cross-browser testing complete (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge)
- Mobile testing complete (iOS, Android)
- Performance budget met (no checkout step exceeds 2.5s LCP)
- Team retro signed off by sprint owner
Dependencies flagged
- CHK-156 depends on the analytics events from CHK-163 being deployed first
- CHK-145 may require design review for any new UI elements
- CHK-177 requires testing on physical iOS 17 devices
Risk Assessment
Overall sprint risk: Medium
The plan is realistic but has some concentration risk on Priya (two of the larger items).
Risk score breakdown
| Dimension | Average score (1-5) | Highest-risk items |
|---|---|---|
| Size risk | 2.4 | CHK-156, CHK-145 (both 13 points) |
| Dependency risk | 2.0 | CHK-156 (depends on CHK-163) |
| Knowledge risk | 2.6 | CHK-156, CHK-145 (both Priya only) |
Per-item risk scores (top 5)
| Item | Size | Dep | Know | Composite | Flags |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CHK-156 (A/B test) | 4 | 3 | 4 | 3.7 | Large + dependency + Priya only |
| CHK-145 (guest checkout) | 4 | 1 | 4 | 3.0 | Large + Priya only |
| CHK-177 (Apple Pay) | 3 | 2 | 3 | 2.7 | iOS 17 testing required |
| CHK-152 (JS bundle) | 3 | 1 | 3 | 2.3 | Lin only knows the build system |
| CHK-167 (required fields) | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2.0 | Frontend + backend coordination |
Risk patterns identified
Single-engineer concentration
- Items affected: CHK-156, CHK-145, CHK-149, CHK-163 (all Priya/Sarah)
- Why this is risky: 39 of 87 story points (45%) depend on two engineers
- Suggested mitigation: Pair Priya with Marcus on CHK-156 to spread knowledge
Bug-fix load (within acceptable range)
- Items affected: CHK-171, CHK-175, CHK-177 (14 SP total)
- Why this is acceptable: 16% of capacity, below the 30% threshold
Pre-sprint mitigation actions
- Pair Priya with Marcus on CHK-156 — Sarah Chen — by sprint kickoff
- Confirm iOS 17 device availability for CHK-177 — David Park — by EOD Monday
- Get design review scheduled for CHK-145 — Sarah Chen — by EOD Tuesday
- Verify analytics dashboard has capacity for new events (CHK-163) — Lin Wang — by sprint kickoff
Items recommended for breakdown
- CHK-156 (A/B test: simplified checkout) — at 13 points and high knowledge concentration, recommend breaking into:
- CHK-156a: Build A/B variant of checkout flow (8 SP)
- CHK-156b: Wire up analytics tracking for the test (5 SP)
Kickoff Brief
Sprint at a glance
Goal: Reduce checkout abandonment by 20%
This sprint is laser-focused on conversion optimisation across the checkout funnel. We're shipping the most impactful changes our funnel analysis identified: saved-cart recovery, simplified checkout flow (A/B tested), better error handling, and improving guest checkout conversion.
We'll know we succeeded if checkout completion rate increases by 4 percentage points (current 82% → target 86%).
Why this sprint matters
Checkout abandonment is currently costing us approximately £180k per month in lost revenue. The funnel analysis from Q1 identified seven specific friction points — six of those are addressed in this sprint. The seventh (international currency display) is being deferred to next sprint pending design.
What's being shipped
Conversion optimisation (61 SP)
- Saved-cart recovery email
- A/B test of simplified checkout
- Better guest checkout
- Address auto-complete
- Earlier delivery date display
- Reduced required fields
Performance and analytics (13 SP)
- Checkout JS bundle optimisation
- Funnel drop-off tracking
Bug fixes (14 SP)
- Safari payment iframe slowness
- Discount code race condition
- EU tax calculation
- Apple Pay on iOS 17
- Card decline error messages
What we're NOT doing this sprint
- International currency display (deferred — needs design)
- Mobile checkout redesign (deferred — out of sprint scope)
- New payment method integration (deferred — Q3 priority)
Definition of success
- Checkout completion rate ≥ 86% (measured 30 days post-deploy)
- A/B test reaches statistical significance within 14 days
- All bug fixes deploy without regression
- No production incidents from changes shipped this sprint
Risks the team should know
- Two of our highest-impact items depend heavily on Priya — we've paired her with Marcus to spread knowledge
- CHK-156 should be broken into two smaller items at refinement
- iOS 17 device availability needs confirmation before sprint start
Action Items for Sprint Planning Meeting
- ✋ Review the risk assessment with the team — discuss the single-engineer concentration on Priya
- ✋ Decide whether to break down CHK-156 into two smaller items
- ✋ Confirm iOS 17 device availability with David before locking in CHK-177
- ✋ Confirm capacity assumptions match what engineers actually expect
- ✋ Lock in the sprint goal — get verbal commitment from the team
- ✋ Update Linear with the agreed sprint scope after the meeting
