Is that a right question to ask at all during effort estimation stage?
When taking workshop with software developers involved SCRUM methodology, I came across some of the following answers in relation with effort estimation vis-a-vis unit testing:
Interestingly, some stakeholders on client end said about of software developers on offshore side not asking for tasks to be estimated for unit tests.
If you observe above, you would find “unit testing” seen as a separate set of actions then development. If seen this way, one will surely not be able to do justice with unit tests and the related Testability quality characteristic associated with it.
I see unit tests activities to be integral part of development. Once seen this way, I pay attention right from the requirements gathering stage to perform following:
Once we see unit testing as integral part of software development, we adjust the schedule to deliver the module in appropriate time duration.

But, you never gave the answer to how to estimate the unit testing. Is there any formula that you use?
