User stories are the cornerstone of Agile requirements. Scrum teams use them to plan and deliver solutions that meet their users’ needs. Beyond just solution requirements, user stories focus on value delivery from the perspective of the user, describing the capabilities needed, as well as the benefits they would provide.
However, user stories can be tricky to write by Agile teams in a way that they are understood by our stakeholders and the delivery team. We may believe that everyone knows what is expected to be delivered, but then find we are wrong. All too often, stories are not delivered because they are misunderstood, too big, not scoped correctly, or missing detail.
This session will explore how to write effective user stories using the three “S” of User Stories : Simple; Single; Specific. These three simple guidelines can help us to assess our user stories to ensure they are sized appropriately and well understood, enabling continuous value delivery by the Scrum team.
