Discovering Requirements, BDD Style
|
Description |
|
|
Behavior Driven Development (BDD) is a collaborative process that bridges the communication gap between the business and the Agile Teams so that teams can build a shared understanding in order to deliver a product that matters. At times, a simple conversation is enough to convey the essential business need, but sometimes a little more structure is needed to really understand the problem we are trying to solve.
In this session we will talk about Example Mapping, a structured, intuitive, low fidelity approach for business stakeholders and team members to collaboratively discover essential product requirements. Using concrete examples, we will illustrate the technique and how it can help teams not only build a deeper understanding of the problem they are solving, but also help define more actionable acceptance criteria, and a better set of test cases.
In breakout sessions, you will take some simple shell stories and discuss the Rules and Examples that are necessary to develop your own Example Maps.
After this interactive session we hope you’ll find Example Mapping to be a more compelling alternative to the typical freeform requirements discovery sessions.
