How can I calculate story points of each individual in a combined assigned ticket

Hizkeel Khan

Hi,

I hope everyone is feeling good. I have a question about how can I divide the story points individually when the ticket is worked on as a whole.

Let's say ticket is assigned 8 story points and 3 developers have worked on the ticket. Let's say the backend guy says that his estimate on the ticket was 2 story points but when I calculate the Dev cycle time, I calculate 8 story points for him as well as the ticket was estimated as a whole and 3 developers have worked on it.

I have one option of segregating it to sub-tasks but makes the boards very messy. Please let me know of any solution possible.

Hi @Hizkeel Khan

No this can't be done.

But I think your process is wrong as Story needs to be estimated by the people that work on the story.

There should be no individual Story Point assignment, this is not based on the methodology as it doesn't relate to individual people but to a team.

In planning a story individuals can give their overall estimate of a Story and the average should be the number the Story gets, then its irrelevant how many people work on the Story.

@Marc -Devoteam- - Ticket is estimated by the team but the problem sometimes there is a single ticket and 3 developers are working on it. That's when confusion is created.

Also, more common scenario is Code Review process. If Dev A has worked on a ticket, moved to Code Review. Now Dev B will do the Review. If the ticket is estimated as 5 Story Points then it means both A and B worked on this 5 SP ticket and i cannot segregate it.

Hi @Hizkeel Khan

That is the basics of a Scrum Team there is no individual.

Sub-tasks don't get estimated and it doesn't matter who works on it. It's the teams effort to complete the issues in the Sprint

No and if a Story has 5 points it means the team gave this five points and not per developer.

Story Point don't estimate per person.
