Disaggregation is a process of splitting a user story \u00a0or feature into smaller, easier-to-estimate pieces, in order to ensure an effective delivery of a product and reduce the complexity. Smaller stories allow faster, more reliable implementation, since small things go through a system faster, reducing variability and managing risk. Splitting bigger stories into smaller ones is, thus, a mandatory survival skill for every Agile team. It\u2019s both the art and the science of incremental development.<\/span><\/p>\n Agile teams use story points and \u2018estimating poker\u2019 to value their work [2, 3]. A story point is a singular number that represents a combination of qualities:<\/span><\/p>\n Agile teams often use \u2018estimating poker,\u2019 which combines expert opinion, analogy, and disaggregation to create quick but reliable estimates.
