Feature estimates are aggregated back into the Epic estimate as part of which artifact?

APortfolio Roadmap

BLean business case

CCustomer journey map

DCapabilities

Suggested Answer: B

Feature estimates are aggregated back into the Epic estimate as part of the lean business case. The lean business case is a lightweight and collaborative artifact that captures the rationale, assumptions, and financial projections for an Epic. The lean business case includes the Epic value statement, which consists of the value proposition, the benefit hypothesis, and the Epic estimate. The Epic estimate is the total effort required to implement the Epic, expressed in story points. The Epic estimate is derived from the sum of the Feature estimates, which are the effort required to implement each Feature that contributes to the Epic, also expressed in story points. The Feature estimates are aggregated back into the Epic estimate as part of the lean business case to provide a realistic and data-driven projection of the cost and duration of the Epic.

I believe it's B) Lean business case too. It focuses on value.

I agree with Bob. A) Portfolio Roadmap seems right.

Wait, are we sure about D? Sounds a bit off.

The correct answer is B) Lean business case. That's where all the financial magic happens!

I practiced a similar question, and I think it was about how features roll up into the Epic, which might point to Capabilities again.

Twana 9 months ago

Lean business case sounds familiar, but I feel like it might not be the right choice for this question.

I remember discussing the Portfolio Roadmap in class, but I can't recall if it was specifically about feature estimates.

Ilda 10 months ago

I think the Epic estimate aggregation is related to the Capabilities artifact, but I'm not entirely sure.

Raymon 10 months ago

This seems like a tricky one. I'm not totally confident, but I'm leaning towards B) Lean business case as the artifact that would aggregate the feature estimates back into the Epic estimate.

Kiera 10 months ago

Okay, I've got a strategy for this. I'll start by recalling what the different artifacts are and their purposes. Then I'll think about which one would be most likely to handle the aggregation of feature estimates into the Epic estimate.

Weldon 10 months ago

I think it's B) Lean business case. It makes sense.

A) Portfolio Roadmap, because who doesn't love a good roadmap to nowhere?

Tenesha 11 months ago

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know the feature estimates feed into the Epic estimate, but I'm not sure which specific artifact is used for that. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Theodora 11 months ago

I think this is asking about how feature estimates get rolled up into the overall Epic estimate, so I'd look for the artifact that handles that aggregation process.
