Agile Glossary

Work-in-Progress (WIP)

Work in Progress is any work that has been started but has yet to be completed.

Work-in-progress (WIP) limit is a strategy for preventing bottlenecks in software development.

WIP limits are often visualized with Kanban cards. The cards, which are often just post-it notes, represent work in progress. To visualize workflow, Kanban cards are posted on a board in queues representing the status of the work. A Kanban board makes it easy for the team members to visualize the point at which a WIP limit has been reached because the queue will have an unacceptable number of Kanban cards in it.
