    Study Notes

    • Resource estimation is the process of estimating time, money, and resources needed to complete a project.
    • Agile software development makes resource estimation challenging due to the undefined scope of the project.
    • Early estimates may be incorrect due to the undefined scope and potential for changes.
    • Resource estimation should be revised regularly as requirements are added or software increments are delivered.
    • An experienced software project manager may estimate a project using the agile spiral model by using historic data to estimate the number of days needed to complete each user story.
    • User stories should be loosely organized into sets that will make up each sprint.
    • The total number of days needed to complete the project can be estimated by summing the number of days needed to complete each sprint.
    • The resource estimate may need to be revised as the project progresses and new requirements are added.
    • The first prototype should focus on the features and functions most important to stakeholders.
    • The developers should determine which high-priority user stories can be finished in a fixed time frame, such as a 4-week sprint, to deliver the first prototype.
