The status of a ticket is marked with different colors:

  • green - OK status, means that Time Spent + Remaining Estimate = Original Estimate

  • yellow - OVERESTIMATED status, means that Time Spent + Remaining Estimate < Original Estimate

  • red - UNDERESTIMATED status, means that Time Spent + Remaining Estimate > Original Estimate
