User Story – Project Requirement Simplified!

Agile Methodology shifts the focus from writing about a requirement to talking about it. Agility focusses on interaction between developers and customers on a requirement so as to arrive at an agreement which is known as User Story.

The Agile Implementation

The basic principle of Scrum is to focus the team iteratively on a set of features to achieve, in fixed- length iterations of one to four weeks, called Sprints. Each Sprint* has a goal, set by the ProductOwner*, who prepares the ProductBacklog* from where features are selected to be implemented in this sprint i.e. a SprintBacklog*. A sprint always leads to the delivery of a functional partial product.

The Agile Movement

Software Development Methodology: The very purpose is to “pursue the development of an information system in a very deliberated, structured and methodical way requiring each stage of SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) to be carried out rigidly and sequentially within the context being applied.”
