Story points are an estimation measure used to express the overall effort that will be required to fully implement a product backlog item or any other piece of work. They are relative measurements where the team estimates the effort of tasks in comparison to a known task. This allows agile teams to quickly and effectively gauge the size of new tasks relative to the effort required for previously completed ones, enabling better predictability and planning for future sprints as detailed in the Agile Practice Guide .
