Is there are report where I can analyze how off we are with estimations

[Julian Davchev]

Hello everyone :) 

So we're estimating and all. But quite often we say something 2 days and then it turns out 4 days or more. 

Is there some report where we can easily see which stories had wrong estimates. This way we can examine and learn from them. Now we have to check one by one if estimates were wrong.

Thank you :)

Hi @Julian Davchev,

There is a Time Tracking report, for more information visit the document here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirasoftwarecloud/reporting-764478415.html

This is limited to 1000 issues though, and I think it is at the project level.  You can also do it manually by creating a filter for your "done" issues that you want to review, include the "Original Estimate" and "Time Spent" columns, and export it to a .csv. When you open the .csv in Excel you'll be able to run analytics on those fields. 

Hope this helps,

Hi Julian, 

There is also this app that let's you see the % of hours logged vs estimated:

Hi Joshwa,

How is this better than the time tracking report within JIRA?

Best,

Maybe I don't see any right now. Thanks a lot for the suggestion though. Appreciate it.
