(IIST – Rep 4514) – A Rommana Webinar

Many agile projects take a simplistic approach to “managing” user stories.

In fact, everything we learned in the requirement management discipline has somehow disappeared when user stories are used to describe desired functionality.

If we hope for the agile approach to scale up to help build complex systems and systems of system, then we need to go beyond the simplistic approach.

Very much like requirements in a non-agile project, user stories do not live in a vacuum. If you consider a more disciplined and more flexible agile project, then user stories change over time, they relate to other user stories, they related to test cases, scenarios, acceptance criteria and other project entities.

User stores are reviewed, finalized and approved. Tasks to implement user stories are assigned to team members and both estimated time and actual time to perform these tasks are tracked. Most importantly, progress in performing these tasks is tracked.

In this presentation,  Magdy will show how we can preserve much of the discipline we followed in the field of requirement management before agile and user stories ever existed.

The presentation will conclude with a short demo of the award winning Rommana ALM to show how we expect a tool to support a more disciplined approach to managing user stories.
