Direct Open→Done Skip

A ticket that transitions directly from "To Do" to "Done" in a single step bypassed every intermediate stage: In Progress, In Review, testing, verification. Sometimes this is legitimate — a task determined to be unnecessary. But when it happens frequently, it signals that the team is closing tickets without doing the work, or skipping the review stages that would catch quality issues.

What you can conclude

• A high rate of direct open-to-done transitions is a process compliance failure — the team is not following its defined workflow.
• A spike in a specific week often correlates with sprint-end pressure — tickets being quickly closed to hit a sprint target.
• A declining rate indicates that workflow compliance is improving.
