Software Estimation Tracker (1997)

Track estimates vs actuals and visualise the gap over time — the data-driven approach to improving estimation accuracy.

Contents

  • estimates.csv — sample data: task, estimate (days), actual (days), category
  • analyse.py — computes ratio, plots distribution, identifies categories with worst accuracy
  • report.md — example output and interpretation guidance
Source code
# Software Estimation Tracker (1997)

```sh
python3 analyse.py estimates.csv
```

Edit `estimates.csv` with your own tasks to track your team's estimation accuracy.
