In late 2019 and early 2020 I wrote a series of blogs called "The Art of Guesstimation." This blog is a short "landing page" for that series. The Art of Guessimation blogs, in order, are:
- Estimation on Software Projects
- Why should we estimate?
- Why shouldn't we estimate?
- Estimates are probability distributions
- The challenges surrounding ranged estimates
- Updating ranged estimates over time
- Truisms for better estimates
I hope you find this blog series valuable and thought provoking.
