Story-Point Estimation: a New and Better Approach
We'll initially examine how and why estimation in Agile goes so wrong, so often. A new, structured and empirical method for estimating story points will then be introduced. The method involves taking into account human and environment-related factors, as well as technical ones, assigns weighted points to them and uses a numeric formula to derive a user-story's point estimate.
It's estimation, Jim, but not as we know it.
