SE-Radio-Episode-273-Steve-McConnell-on-Software-Estimation

Sven Johann talks with Steve McConnell about Software Estimation.
Topics include when and why businesses need estimates and when
they don’t need them; turning estimates into a plan and
validating progress on the plan; why software estimates are
always full of uncertainties, what these uncertainties are and
how to deal with them. They continue with: estimation, planning
and monitoring a Scrum project from the beginning to a possible
end. They close with estimation techniques in the large
(counting, empirical data) and in the small (e.g. poker
planning).
