Story Template “As a ... I want .. so that ...” - create a template that works for you!

Estimating

Estimates are always wrong;

Errors average out;

The average is wrong too;

But at least it’s consistently wrong;

You need a lot of estimates;

So don’t waste time perfecting the imperfectable.

Estimating

How to estimate:

Story points / Ideal days;

New problem, break into tasks;

Familiar problem, go with your gut;

Tracking actuals can help you synchronize;

Estimating

Tricks:

First of the gate;

Planning poker;

T-shirt size;

Estimate mapping (Mute mapping);

Done Done

It’s “Done Done” when your on-site customer can use it;

Create your own “Done Done”;

Done Done

All tests coded and passed;

Installer/deployer updated;

Data migration tools updated;

Documentation updated;

All work integrated;

All bugs fixed, scheduled or accepted;

Customers reviwed and accepted;

Daily Stand-Up

1: What did you learn yesterday (that might affect others on your team)?

2: What progress did you make and what will you do today?

3: What is impeding you?

4: How confident are you (that we will meet out commitment)?

Slack

Sources of variability:

Technical debt;

Inadequate customer presence;

External disruptions;

Slack

Use slack to pay down technical debt and to learn how to be the customer;

Effect of Slack on Velocity;
