 One team were concerned enough that they wanted to have a discussion on their estimates and the problems they perceived in their process. In preparation, the Scrum Master prepared a data-set of estimates and resultant actual data so we could base the conversation on data. The data collected included a story-by-story view of the original point estimate provided by the team and the subsequent actual story points recorded by the team on completion of the work. As a result we were able to create the following chart:
-{{ :blog:estimates-vs-actual.jpg?300 |}}
+{{ :blog:estimates-vs-actual.jpg?600 |}}
 This is a frequency chart, a useful starting point for this kind of analysis. It shows for each of estimates the team made (bottom set of numbers – 0.5, 1, 2, etc) the number of times the actual result was a particular estimate. So for estimate of “3” there was 24 times that the actual was also 3 (tallest spike on chart), 15 times it was a 2 (to the left of the tallest spike), 11 times it was an 8 (to the right of the tallest spike) and so on.
