This course focuses on uncovering and managing the customers’ true needs for the product you are building. Learn how to discover user stories in an agile development process. Going beyond the practice of merely pulling out stories as they are encountered, you will learn how to organize stories so they can be more easily implemented in a consistent manner. Practice techniques on how to organize agile requirements to help ensure consistent and complete information from your customers and subject experts.
Go beyond the agile mandate of prioritizing stories merely by customer value. Learn to use risk mitigation and customer feedback to organize stories into iterations. Estimate development time for different stories and the project as a whole. Use the project knowledge generated during development to dynamically refine early estimates and keep customers and management informed about progress.
During this course you can apply what you have learned by participating in the following exercises:
• Create user stories from a high-level list of requirements
• Learn to use Planning poker to effectively create high level estimates of effort
• Analyze a problem domain to discern its high level concepts
This course is for product owners, business analysts, developers, QA testers, Scrum Masters, team leaders, users, and anyone involved in discovering and documenting user needs and requirements within an agile development environment.
