  • Summary

  • This episode is part of a wider mini-series looking at Estimation in Software Development.

    In last week's episode, I asked you to think about what the term "estimate" means to you, your team and your organisation.

    In the episode I talked about different definitions that could easily be conflated - the amount of effort, a target, and a commitment.

    In this week's episode I want to continue the discussion by looking at estimates "proxies" - what they are, why they can be useful and how to avoid the trap of confusing them for scheduling.
