How We Estimate
To point tasks, the team uses a Fibonacci sequence which maps roughly to the amount of time a task will take (which maps roughly to the complexity of the task). The pointing scale is as follows:
| Points | Rough Time Task Will Take |
|---|---|
| 1 | 1 hour (well-defined, short task) |
| 2 | 4 hours |
| 3 | 1 day |
| 5 | 2.5 days |
| 8 | 5 days |
| 13 | 2 weeks |
