  • Abstract
    Agile methodologies for software development take a novel, lightweight approach to most aspects of designing and producing applications. Agile software development is an iterative development method. Its basic concept is people - centered and it acknowledges that requirements can change. Due to changing nature of Agile size of user-story is not certain and also new user-stories can be added or existing user-stories can be removed. This creates uncertainty in agile project that leads to poor estimation of time and cost. The proposed technique of managing uncertainty in agile reduces uncertainty by reducing the size of the user-story to be estimated.
