Many agile teams, however, have transitioned to story points. Story points are units of measure for expressing an estimate of the overall effort required to fully implement a product backlog item or any other piece of work. Teams assign story points relative to work complexity, the amount of work, and risk or uncertainty. Values are assigned to more effectively break down work into smaller pieces, so they can address uncertainty. Over time, this helps teams understand how much they can achieve in a period of time and builds consensus and commitment to the solution. It may sound counter-intuitive, but this abstraction is actually helpful because it pushes the team to make tougher decisions around the difficulty of work. Here are few reasons to use story points:</p> </div> <div class="component component--textblock text-longform"> <ul> <li>Dates don’t account for the non-project related work that inevitably creeps into our days: emails, meetings, and interviews that a team member may be involved in.</li> <li>Dates have an emotional attachment to them. Relative estimation removes the emotional attachment.</li> <li>Each team will estimate work on a slightly different scale, which means their velocity (measured in points) will naturally be different. This, in turn, makes it impossible to play politics using velocity as a weapon.</li> <li>Once you agree on the relative effort of each story point value, you can assign points quickly without much debate. </li> <li>Story points reward team members for solving problems based on difficulty, not time spent. This keeps team members focused on shipping value, not spending time. </li> </ul> </div> <div class="component component--textblock text-longform"> <p>Unfortunately, story points are often misused. Story points go wrong when they’re used to judge people, assign detailed timelines and resources, and when they’re mistaken for a measure of productivity. Instead, teams should use story points to understand the size of the work and the prioritization of the work.

Then everyone holds up a card with the number that reflects their estimate. If everyone is in agreement, great! If not, take some time (but not too much time–just couple minutes) to understand the rationale behind different estimates. Remember though, estimation should be a high level activity.

(If you're using story points, you may decide that, say, 20 points is the upper limit.) It’s simply too hard to estimate individual work items larger than that with a high degree of confidence. And that confidence is especially important for items at the top of the backlog. When something is estimated above your team's 16-hour (or 20-point) threshold, that's a signal to break it down into more granular pieces and re-estimate.</p> <p>For items deeper in the backlog, give a rough estimate. By the time the team actually begins to work on those items, the requirements may change, and your application certainly will have changed. So prior estimates won’t be as accurate. Don’t waste time estimating work that is likely to shift. Just give the product owner a ballpark figure she can use to prioritize the product roadmap appropriately.</p> </div> <div class="component component--heading"> <h2 class="fnt-wt font-wt- fnt-mg font-mgn- fnt-ln font-lnh- heading" > Learn from past estimates </h2> </div> <div class="component component--textblock text-longform"> <p>Retrospectives are a time for the team to incorporate insights from past iterations–including the accuracy of their estimates.
