[Topic] how does estimation work?

in charts there's estimation graph and remaining graph. how does it build the estimation graph?

thanks

I think I understand. estimation is total number of items/time. if I change issues in the iteration estimation changes that day to reflect the changes, right? this way I can see how my changes have affected the iteration

Great, now that you understand how iterations work, can you explain it to me? :-) I have created a task and an iteration, and the iteration chart tab just has a line accross the top.

estimation graph is total number of items/time on particular day. both completed and incomplete items are counted in it. if you would add a new item on specific day estimation would go up. when you just create an estimation there will be line accross the top and add/remove items from iterations it will remain a flat line accross the top

remaining line shows number of items/time for incomplete items. the only difference between estimation and remaining lines is that estimation includes both incomplete and complete (all) items, and remaining includes only incomplete.

AgileTrack tracks how total number and incomplete number on each particular day and builds a graph based on that. at least this is how it's supposed to work. I don't know for sure how it works and if it's accurate.

for example I'm not sure what will happen if I will change estimation on incompleted item. do graphs go up on all points, only only today? what about changing completed item estimation, does it have any effect?
