In Agile project management, which techniques do you use to calculate resource requirements?

Question

Accepted Answer

In Agile, techniques like story points, T-shirt sizing, and velocity help estimate resource requirements effectively.

Story Points: Assign points to user stories based on complexity; e.g., a simple task might be 2 points, while a complex one could be 8.
T-shirt Sizing: Use sizes (XS, S, M, L, XL) to categorize tasks; e.g., a small task might take a day, while an extra-large could take a week.
Velocity: Measure the amount of work completed in a sprint; e.g., if a team completes 30 story points in a sprint, they can estimate future sprints.
Capacity Planning: Assess team availability and skills; e.g., if a team has 5 members available for 40 hours each in a sprint, total capacity is 200 hours.
