Writing Effective Requirements and User Stories In Scrum

Writing Effective Requirements and User Stories In Scrum

One of the primary reasons for project failure is poor requirements. Ineffective requirements management often leads to Unhappy Customers, or scope creep, which in turn may cause project cost overrun or project delays.

A User Story describes a feature or requirement, that is to be implemented and is independent of a specific tool (i.e. JIRA, Rally, Trello, etc.). User stories are employed in various Agile frameworks including Scrum, Kanban, and Extreme Programming.

User stories should be written as small, independent, testable increments of the business need, and prioritized by the Product Owner. While Product Owners write functional user stories, the Scrum Team can contribute non-functional / technical stories.

Let’s see what we will cover in this course:

• How to conduct productive client meetings?

• Various ways of expressing requirements. These techniques will provide you with the tools you will need to confidently interact with your client as well as satisfy them with the “right product”.

• The most popular means of expressing requirements in Agile and Scrum: User stories, Use cases, Wireframes, and Storyboards.

• How do Acceptance Tests help to verify the user stories which they accompany?

• You will learn how Story Maps are used to organize user stories so that you’re always putting your effort into the tasks which make the most impact.

• We will explore the activity of Analyzing Requirements in greater detail. This type of activity creates clear and actionable requirements which result in high-quality software with fewer errors.

• I will show you techniques to deal with Vague, Ambiguity, and Unclear requirements, with examples from my clients and my work.

• I will introduce a running example. We are going to follow this example throughout the course so that you can see how requirement activities progress from beginning to end.

• User stories with examples and a template

ALL FROM MY WORK AND MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE!!!

Upon completing this course, you will be prepared to advance your career as a confident Product Owner or software product management professional.
