Task Estimation Workshop

A collaborative session where the Scrum Team sizes the work to complete one or more tasks for a specific Sprint and estimates the people effort and other resources needed to accomplish those tasks during that Sprint.

Key Points

  • Purpose: estimate the effort to complete tasks in a defined Sprint, including staffing effort and supporting resources.
  • Participants: the Scrum Team; the Product Owner clarifies scope and acceptance criteria, and the Scrum Master facilititates.
  • Approach: decompose work into tasks and use techniques such as Planning Poker, relative sizing, or ideal hours; consider team capacity and constraints.
  • Outputs: task-level estimates, identified resource needs, assumptions and risks, and inputs to Sprint Planning and the Sprint forecast.

Example

Before Sprint Planning, the team breaks a user story into tasks (e.g., API endpoint, UI update, unit tests). They estimate each task in hours and note they will need 1 QA tester for a day and access to a staging environment. These estimates help right-size the Sprint backlog to match the team's capacity.
