A product's scope and acceptance criteria have been detailed, and the product is planned for release at the end of the next quarter. What should the project team do next?
A.
Estimate the project team's capacity
B.
Determine how much work can be delivered
C.
Calculate how much work will fit into the next iteration
Steps to Planning a Release
1. Determine condition of satisfaction
2. Estimate user stories
3. select an iteration length
4. estimate velocity
5. Proritize US
6. select stories and release date
D is correct
Defined AC is made in Iteration, therefore the next step is to estimate tasks=estimate capacity.
Delete (D) for next step is Not to estimate stories/items from the Product Backlog,
Delete (B)(C) for selected Stories for Iteration (scope) comes before defined AC, and "how much work" means the scope needs to be defined again, which is wrong.
I go for (A)
Best Answer D. Mike Griffith pg. 323.
In the release planning meeting we decompose our stories as needed for that level of planning. However, those breakdowns are still fairly coarse-grained, and meant to be preliminary. The ultimate details of the stories—the tasks—are broken down at the “last responsible moment” during iteration planning.
» Estimate the tasks.
After the planning meeting, we can estimate the effort required to complete each of the tasks in real time, since our estimates so far have been in story points. Estimating the tasks in real time is an optional step, but it does help confirm that our plan for the iteration is really workable.
Iteration Planning according to Mike Griffith pg. 323
1. Discuss the user stories in the backlog and any dependencies
2. Select the user stories for the iteration
3. Define acceptance criteria and write acceptance tests for the stories
4. Break the stories into tasks
5. Estimate the tasks in ideal time, then assign and schedule them in real time
Yep, I'll go with D. without estimating backlog, one can't estimate teams capacity.
