Estimation




Online Planning Poker
Individual stories are presented for estimation. After a
period of discussion, each participant chooses from his own
deck the numbered card that represents his estimate of how
much work is involved in the story under discussion. All
estimates are kept private until each participant has chosen
a card. At that time, all estimates are revealed
