Introduction
There are several factors, which have to be considered while estimating a testing project. The stability of the application to be maintained is a crucial element while estimating testing projects. A generic estimation methodology is very difficult to arrive at. At best, one could highlight the factors that influence estimation in such projects. Hence estimation largely is based on the information and experiences from previous projects. As in other cases these estimates are validated as the project progresses.
Assumptions Made while Estimating
While estimating a project, all the assumptions made should be written down in detail.

The Rules

· Estimation shall be always based on the software requirements
· Estimation shall be based on expert judgment
· Estimation shall be based on previous projects
· Estimation shall be based on metrics
· Estimation shall never forget the past
· Estimation shall be recorded
· Estimation shall be supported by tools
· Estimation shall always be verified
