rescoring

Contributor(s): Matt Savage

Rescoring is an Agile software development process in which the development team revisits a pre-defined list of user stories to review story point scores and adjust them up or down based on what the team has learned in previous development iterations.

The goal of rescoring is to fine-tune scope and provide accurate estimates for how long work will take and when the project will complete.
