What went wrong?

  • Yes, we did! We performed a conservative estimation at the beginning of the sprint, and over performed.

• Did we do a good job estimating the points (time required) for each user story?
  • Yes, our estimation even out. We both overestimated and underestimated in certain user stories, which evened out to be just right.
