I am sharing with you my “Test Estimation Tools” that I have worked for several weeks. Though initially it will be time consuming to understand; once we will implement; it will be quite easier to estimate the testing time.
There are variables always for all the estimation tools we have e.g. Project hour estimation using Function Point or Use Case Point. I am sharing this big effort to all because if I have it within myself that will be less useful than sharing through the blogs and later this might be get popularity for the effectiveness of it.
If you have any question on “Test Estimation Tools” let me know; I will try to answer as easy way as possible. Here is the link to download: http://bd.linkedin.com/in/shaiful you will find it in my BOX.net file: Test Estimation using FP-UCP.xls
If you unable to download from above profile please check out here: http://bit.ly/dj2ScB
You can estimate your testing time using both Function Point and Use Case Point.
I know there will be so many questions, e.g. it’s not worthiest or difficult to understand. Anyway, have a look and let me know how it is? Please share for this in my blog and you can put comments.
Thanks.

ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for sharing this information.
I'll be posting this news in my discussion group on LinkedIn, and on my blog. This publication will be replicated in my Twitter and on my Facebook.
I tell you that I am researching and working on the same subject, so I'll also be sharing with you my progress.
Regarding this issue, there is little information showing that practical treatment.
Please could you post a concrete example ?, where you can show how to translate such data into the excel spreadsheet.

ReplyDeleteI have checked testimation.com but the problem is you only know the input; how the output is generated you never know.
The tools I have uploaded you will know the input, calculation and output as well.
Thanks for sharing.
@gt,
ReplyDeleteIf you have any small projects data then send to me I will make for you. Otherwise you can go through the tools, you have the description for each data, references, calculation.
I guess you can make yourself for your projects to calculate the hours.
If you have any more query let me know.
Thanks.

ReplyDeleteUnderstanding the calculation mechanism matters in this case, because it gives anybody the option to update/customize it according to different PM methods.
@Shaiful,
I think the next step for this useful template is to look for a way to start estimating Agile, where we've got only user stories that are not illustrated by use cases :)
We appreciate the sharing!
I tried to check both following links.. but unfortunately not working.
