While in traditional projects the main focus is on manage the scope and prevent scope creep, in agile projects we expect and we welcome changes in any given time. A logical question is – if allow changes can the team achieve some level of predictability. The short answer is yes, but it depends on many different factors. One of the major factor is how the agile team estimates its work.
The way the team estimates is very important for make some prediction. We will discuss practices, techniques and rules that need to be followed in order to succeed in Agile environment.
