A team is estimating story points. They estimate that the story falls between a large (13) and a medium (5) and they assign a story point of 8. What is this technique called?
The technique you're describing is known as "Triangulation."
In the context of estimating story points in Scrum, triangulation involves comparing a new user story with other user stories that the team has previously estimated. If the new story seems larger than a story that was estimated as 5 points but smaller than a story that was estimated as 13 points, the team might assign it a value that falls between these two, such as 8 points.
Triangulation can help teams make more accurate estimations because it forces them to consider their past experience and how the new story compares to work they've done before.
