Writing user stories, The art of writing a good user story, explained in 20 minutes.
Course Description
This is a short recap course that explains the structure of a user story and gives a step-by-step process on how to create a good user story.
Following these steps and thinking about each component you will be able to write comprehensible user stories that can be interpreted by all stakeholders.
This course is free and is intentionally short. I don’t want to explain too much unnecessary information.
It covers the components of a good user story, it delivers an example of a user story, and discuss it, and the last part is an exercise where we go over the creation of a user story for a problem ourselves.
This course is complementary to my general Functional analyses course and my course about writing documentation for IT and software development.
The course describes the parts of a good user story, after that it will show this in an existing user story. The next part will cover briefly the similarities between a user story and a requirement, and we conclude with an exercise on how to create a user story from a given problem statement.
This course is a good starter for writing user stories for aspiring analysts, but it can also be studied by developers and testers as they often need to write stories themselves.
