For a new project, for 1st sprint, how to decide how many stories to commit for sprint?


We can take 2 probabilities here, one is considering the team is new and considering the team already worked together. Since the team is new they don’t know their velocity and so they agree as a team to pick up certain stories and work towards completing them.

Advanced Certified Scrum Master

If they complete them sooner, they will pick up new stories and continue working till the end of the spring. If they are unable to complete, they have learned how much can be done in the upcoming sprint and they decide accordingly.

Scrum Master is not responsible for the estimates, only the development team is. Scrum Master does not get the estimates from the team, they do it for themselves to complete the work. If they are wrong or have provided a different estimate, they will make sure it will be taken care as part of their retrospectives and do it right on the upcoming refinement events.

If the team has already worked together, they know their velocity and they can pick items based on their velocity.
