Participants will: Capture requirements from the user's perspective. Focus on user value. Enable iterative development. Facilitate conversation. Break down complex features. Maintain user-centeredness. Create testable acceptance criteria.
Participants will produce: A written user story. Clear requirement articulation. A foundation for development.
Keep stories independent and negotiable. Focus on the "why," not just the "what." Avoid technical details. Write from one user's perspective. Use the INVEST criteria (Independent, Negotiable, Valuable, Estimable, Small, Testable). Encourage discussion. Sometimes, teams struggle with estimating effort initially; be patient.
