Which of the following is not an option to achieve reliable cost and effort estimate ?
Correct answer: D. The ability to translate the size estimate into human effort, calendar time, and dollars
- A. Base estimates on similar projects that have already been completed
- B. Use one or more empirical models for software cost and effort estimation
- C. Use relatively simple decomposition techniques to generate project cost and effort estimates
- D. The ability to translate the size estimate into human effort, calendar time, and dollars
Explanation
Reliable estimation can use completed similar projects, empirical models, or decomposition techniques. Translating size into effort, time, and money is the estimation outcome or capability, not a separate estimation option in this list.
