In Agile Scrum management process, there are few needs to happen for the sprint (iteration) to be called done. There are at least three types of Definitions of done.
Story Definition of done
· A Story definition of done would look like this.
· All stories should have automated acceptance test.
· The story should have working code supported by unit test that provide around 60 – 70 percent coverage.
· The story should have well defined acceptance criteria.

An XP practice where two programmers work alongside each other, trying to get a task accomplished. Two minds at one problem!
How this help?
· It brings up productivity if the pair knows what it is up to. A chatty pair can cause more damage to the project than getting done
· It keeps each person honest. If you don’t know something its apparent in the fifth minute.
· It helps keep the quality of the code. Since the pair is helping code.
· This is where design happens.

There are many approaches for the estimation of a project. Some people will tell you to use the estimation based on story points from Fibonacci numbering system, however this approach only work when features are similar enough to keep a project velocity chart (average project velocity per sprint) in your project but, we all know that this is impossible, some features will need less than a hour of development and other sometimes two days. I am not saying that this methodology is not good, I am just saying that is perfect to get your project velocity chart from the project but if you really want an estimate to get the cost and scope from your project you need the estimate in a period of time, usually days of work.
