Velocity is calculated at the end of the Sprint by totaling the Points for all fully completed User Stories.

Beside the velocity, scrum teams uses story point to track their progress using  the brundown chart. A burndown chart is a graphic representation of how quickly the team is working through a customer’s user stories.
