DRAFT: 'What is a user story?'

Published on 4 April 2024.

This is a work in progress that will change. Like to see it finished? Let me know by sending me an email.

I’ve been on a quest to learn “real agile”. Before I researched CI. Now its time for user stories.

What people say a story is:

…

“Do you put backlog refinement on the backlog?”

XP: “Write stories about improving your software development process. What is your budget for improvement?”

…

What value? To whom?

…

Ron: “What kinds of value does your project deliver to its users? To your organization? To the team? What value does it deliver to you?”

Information has value. (Spike solution.)

…

Acceptance test: when is a story done?

…

Adding features/capabilities to product needs story? Refacotring does not add any ability? Testing neither. Both increase quality, but not capability.

…

Example: SSL certs

Example: Testing

Example: Moving hosting provider

…

AI chronicels: stories show progress towards a larger goal.
