38. Agile Project Plan
• System is created function by function • Priorities of the functions can be
(size): changed:
– Function 1 (20) – Function 1 (20)
– Function 2 (40) – Function 2 (40)
– Function 3 (20) – Function 5 (20) – more important
– Function 4 (40) – Function 3 (20)
– Function 5 (20) – Function 4 (40)
– Function 6 (40) – Function 6 (40)
• Total (180) • Total (180)
• Early visibility if estimates were right: • Functions can be exchanged with the
same size function:
– Function 1 (20) –
finished after 30  – Function 1 (20)
– Function 2 (40) – Function 2 (40)
– Function 3 (20) – Function 3 (20)
– Function 4 (40) – Function 7 (40) – new
– Function 5 (20) – Function 5 (20)
– Function 6 (40) – Function 6 (40)
• Total (180) - is it really 180? • Total (180)
