摘要:This research shows a cost estimation bias toward the Agile development method. Much literature exists showing the true number of projects that exhibit cost savings from using the Agile method. Most studies show about 50% of projects see a cost savings when switching to Agile. This study asked software developers to estimate the number of hours that it would take to complete a software development task using both Agile and Waterfall methods. Results show that there is significant evidence to believe that software developers have a bias toward Agile. The results show that developers underestimate software tasks when it is known that the development method will be Agile
