What is Scrum?

Scrum is a software development

framework in which a product is

which an improved version of the

product is released in predefined

iterations.

Scrum stakeholders

These are the stakeholders within the Scrum

process at Endouble:

- Development Team

Product Owner

The Product Owner is the stakeholder in the

Scrum process who shares his vision and wishes

with all the other stakeholders in the Scrum

process. He manages the backlog.

Unless...


The Project Manager in our Scrum process takes

over communications with developers, manages

the backlog and helps optimise ‘user stories’ and

their priorities.

What is a user story?

User stories are short, simple

descriptions of a feature told from the

perspective of the person who desires the

new capability, usually a user or

customer of the system.


What does a proper ‘user story’ look like?

As a ____________ , I want _________ , so that ____________. ________________________ (optional)

As a <type of user>, I want <some goal> so that <some reason>. <limitations & priority are optional>


“As an applicant, I would like to be able to generate a CV (Curriculum Vitae) based on my LinkedIn profile,

because I don’t have a proper CV of my own. We (Endouble) are not a LinkedIn-partner. This ticket has the

highest priority.”

I (as a role/user) want to be able to (functionality/action), because (goal/value for the role/user). (optional

limitations)

Real life examples (1/2)

I, as an applicant, want to read company blogs, so I can learn

more about the company’s culture & activities.

What defines a good ‘user story’?

» The stories need to be complete

A ‘user story’ should define the target audience, explain the desired result and the reason behind it.

» Conditions / limitations

In case there are limitations as to how the problem might be solved, it is important that they are mentioned

as well.

» Priorities

A user story is only as important as its priority. Always specify the priority.
