Integration of Story Points and Use Case Points in Projects Based on SCRUM and CMMI
Abstract
Developing reliable estimates is one of the most critical aspects in software development. The adoption of agile methods and small iterations bring new challenges to estimation processes and the CMMI model implementation, such as low information availability or low level of technical detail, high team involvement in the estimation process and a tight schedule to come up with estimates. The case presented in this paper describes how Instituto Atlântico has implemented Story Points estimates in a context of high maturity CMMI level (levels 4 and 5) using Use Case Points based historical data.
