User Story In Agile Scrum - By Ankur Mistry

In this article, we will learn what User Story is and how to write one. User Story plays a major role here. It is the part of the Agile process where instead of writing comprehensive requirements, we write a short description of a feature. As the Agile Manifesto says 'Working Software' Over 'Comprehensive Documents'. What is User Story? User Story is a short and simple description of the feature or requirements of the project. Generally, user stories are written on sticky notes or index cards as a user or role-based perspective. User Story Template As a < type of user or role >, I want < some goal > so that < some reason >. The template identifies 3 questions - "Who", "What", and "Why". If the team doesn't know these three answers, it means they don't understand the story, and if they don't understand the story, then it's difficult to split it well.

The Burn Up Charts In Scrum By: Namrata Parik

I would like to propose a less-taken path in my maiden article to track the progress in scrum. We usually do it using the burn down chart which is relatively easier to understand as compared to the burn up chart. These charts help the team and stakeholders to see and track the progress at any point in the release process or sprint. Burn-down chart provides us the information showing the progress based on the remaining hours or story points from top to bottom. (The burn-down chart can be plotted using story points, task count or the remaining effort) This chart is a plot of expected remaining and actual remaining, this is the most used chart in scrum and since it has only two lines it is considered to be a simple chart. It does not cover the scope creep. So sometimes what might look like ‘no work ‘ done by the team may actually be a result of scope creep. The chart below reflects that the team has not done any progress in Sprint 5 and 6 as the story points remain the same. Image
