How to Estimate Resources and Effort for a Requirement

A requirement can have multiple resource roles. For example, a development requirement needs a manager role, a designer role, a developer role, and a quality assurance role. You can associate resource roles with a requirement and can estimate the amount of effort it takes for each role to complete the requirement.

For information about how to define roles for selection in CA Clarity™ Agile, see the Administration Guide.

To estimate the resources and effort for a requirement, you must:

1. Add a resource role for the requirement.
2. Estimate the effort for a resource role.
