Summary

Seb Rose explores what a good user story looks like, discussing the INVEST acronym to see if there is a replacement that describes the key elements of a good user story in a less ambiguous language.

About the conference

It was another really fantastic conference this year which saw 400 people pass through the doors - our biggest turnout so far with fully booked workshops and a great atmosphere over the whole three days. Brought to us by Naked Element Ltd., the next conference is already being planned with the addition of a dedicated schools day.

    Hi, I found this session incredibly valuable. Still I am confused by the interpretation of Independent: what's the value of making sure that a story is dependent only on one story instead of two?
