Story points are used to estimate the complexity of user stories or product backlog items rather than assigning an exact time estimate. Teams use a Fibonacci sequence of numbers like 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13 to represent relative complexity so comparisons can be made. Larger stories may need to be broken down further to aid effective and efficient sprint planning. Velocity, which is a measure of how much work a team can complete in a sprint, is calculated by totaling the story points of completed items.

Story points is a way of measuring the complexity of a US or PBI.
WHEN You do not give an exact number explaining how complex the story is and how long it will take to develop – you give a rough “estimate”. Before Sprint Planning As a human, we are good at comparing size, so estimating a story using Fibonacci series gives more clarity of its complexity and relative sizing in terms of development. Given blow is an example of INPUTS relative sizing and its estimation points to develop different types of vehicles: Product Backlog Team Capacity
OUTPUTS
Sprint Backlog: An estimated
list of US/PBI’s that the team Note: It is recommended to break down the PBI’s further if the SP commits to deliver within a value is large for managing the sprint effectively & efficiently. Given sprint. below is another example of estimating of US/PBI’s. Velocity: It is a measure of the amount of work a Team can tackle during a single Sprint and is the key metric in Scrum. Velocity is calculated at the end of the Sprint by totaling the Points for all fully completed User Stories. YOUR NAME
