Introducing User Stories

Categories: blog



I have started introducing the use of user stories to the other team members. Hopefully it is simple enough to be understood.

There was a weird suggestion though to make the user stories as a formal means of refining the user requirements which require the user’s signature. I’m really against that, the last thing we need is to get the users to sign on more stuffs, it will make them think that they’re signing a death warrant if something goes wrong which will make them avoid signing it. They’ll bounce the form back and forth to other officers.

What I had in mind is that these user stories are only to help us make better software and useful for planning.

There was no objection to the usage of user stories, so I guess I can look forward to seeing how the user story are being produced and used.
