Writing user stories

The blog is updated very seldom nowadays. It is not because I have lost interst, it is just that I write scientific articles with an unprecedented speed in parallel with doing improvement work at Volvo.

I just wanted to put in a reminder of how you define a user story (e.g. for use in a Scrum backlog), shamelessly stolen from a presentation by Dean Leffingwell:

As a <role>
I can <activity>
So that <business value>

"As a Gmail user, I can select and highlight a conversation for further action"
