Document Summary
Capacity constraint: a check to see: resources estimated == sum of feature, any development plan must respect the capacity estimated. Values must be continuously update the plan to maintain constraint: effective-coder-day = 8 hours of uninterrupted dedicated coding. Work time = 8 hours per day. Dedicated time = time dedicated to adding new features or release or unit testing uninterrupted hour equivalents of work time. Estimating requirements (f: eliciting potential requirements. Start w/ a wish-list, pick based on priority (see mar27ce) Stated as business requirements, features and/or architectural enchancements: to derive t. Use planning poker find inherent size of work. Assign it to a person may have to resize. Account for the productivity of that person item factor in (w) Then, sum up requirements after assignments made = T: ensure units are understood, use ecd. Estimating number of work days (t: t = number of full working days for the development, subtract ahead of time.
