Story

Well-written stories are one of the most critical elements of agile. A well-written story has the following traits:

• It has high business value
• It is specific and of a small size; sizing takes into account all work related to that story done by all team members
• It can be discussed by team members during planning meetings clearly, succinctly, and independently of other user stories
• Test cases can be easily defined and the story can be tested thoroughly (and fixed, if required) during the same sprint
