Analysis > Generating User Stories

Presented by: Daniel Greenleaf and Anita Shankar
Analysis Track: 11am-noon
Presentation Materials: Slide Deck

Successful projects depend on deeply understanding users needs. Too often though, during the transition from traditional methods to Agile, teams swing the pendulum too far in the other direction using “working software over comprehensive documentation” as an excuse to abandon capturing and communicating requirements. User Stories can be an extremely effective technique to communicate requirements, but they require the disciplined application of new skills. The good news is those skills can be acquired with a little guidance.

Join Anita and Dan for a fun and interactive session that will show you how to write effective user stories. The common pitfalls to avoid when writing user stories. What good acceptance criteria looks like. And how to still be effective without resorting to comprehensive documentation.
