the following steps: 1. Estimate the number of hours that each person will be available to work on the project each day. 2. Determine the total number of hours that will be spent on the project during the iteration. 3. Arbitrarily and somewhat randomly select stories, and expand them into their constituent tasks. Repeat until you have identified enough tasks to fill the number of hours in the iteration. 4. Convert the velocity determined in the preceding step into a range.
