Story Point Estimations - CPSECapstone/Turtle GitHub Wiki

We are estimating our story points using the Fibonacci sequence:

• 0 - Simple no brainer change

• 1,2 - Solution well understood and involves little to no risk

• 3 - Solution fairly well understood and involves low level of risk

• 5 - Solution is fairly well understood but involves medium amount of risk

• 8 - Solution is not well understood but involves a medium level of risk. It may involve dependencies on other service or refactoring

• 13 - Solution is not well understood and involves a high level of risk. It may involve dependencies on other services or significant refactoring

• 21 - Ticket requires breaking down into smaller tickets. It may involve dependencies on other services or significant refactoring
