Most Agile and Scrum training courses refer to a 7 +/- 2 rule, that is, agile or Scrum teams should be 5 to 9 members. Scrum enthusiasts may recall that the Scrum guide says Scrum teams should not be less than 3 or more than 9. Where does this thumb rule come from? and Why?

LeSS was created by Bas Vodde and Craig Larman from practical experience in scaling up Scrum, founded as the LeSS Company in 2014. The “More with LeSS” principle is at the heart of LeSS (Large Scale Scrum). Complex product development doesn’t require complex solutions. It requires a deep understanding of the essence of the problems, which can then be solved with simpler solutions.

We always come across these terms in software development. Sometimes people a piece of software feature — requirement/ use case, backlog items …. What is the convention of the software people for using that or which?

In software development , the usual “estimation” includes a quantitative evaluation of the work required to perform a given development task; this is usually expressed in terms of duration (hour / day) or estimated unit (story point). The purpose is to consolidate a number of such individual estimates in order to obtain an indication of the overall duration, work or cost of the software project.
