Small is Beautiful David

1. Why are
small user stories important? 2. How do we make user stories small? 3. Questions @seize_the_dave Outline
3.
1. Most benefit
for product managers or product owners 2. Beginner to intermediate level @seize_the_dave Intended Audience
4.
1. It’s OK
to ask questions, but please raise your hand 2. It’s OK to leave if this isn’t for you @seize_the_dave House Rules
5.
Why are small stories
important?
6.
Thomas Edison, Inventor
& Businessman “The real measure of success is the number of experiments that can be crowded into 24 hours”
7.
Software product development is
complex and uncertain @seize_the_dave
8.
@seize_the_dave Need to learn
incrementally by building and measuring
9.
@seize_the_dave Tighten feedback loops pixabay.com/p-52691
10.
More opportunities to change
direction @seize_the_dave
11.
Very few economies
of scale in software @seize_the_dave
12.
How do we
slice user stories?
13.
Techniques are bidirectional, but... @seize_the_dave
14.
“An ounce of
prevention is worth a pound of cure” Proverb, Early 17th Century
15.
@seize_the_dave The product backlog is
not a replacement for a requirements document flickr.com/photos/wiertz/5624281846
16.
Fundamentals
17.
Narrow your customer segments @seize_the_dave
18.
Use story headlines to
facilitate slicing @seize_the_dave
19.
Card, Conversation, Confirmation @seize_the_dave
20.
@seize_the_dave Gradually increase complexity pixabay.com/p-1840480/
21.
@seize_the_dave Legacy rewrite? Start with
the outputs
22.
High complexity? Build
a walking skeleton, but don’t kid yourself @seize_the_dave
23.
Slicing Patterns
24.
@seize_the_dave Split on business
rule variations
25.
@seize_the_dave Split out major effort http://bit.ly/2tJB6LH
26.
@seize_the_dave Split on variations
in data
27.
@seize_the_dave Simplify inputs
28.
@seize_the_dave Defer non-functional requirements
29.
@seize_the_dave Split learning from earning pixabay.com/p-2337525/
30.
Manual or automated @seize_the_dave
31.
@seize_the_dave Build or buy?
32.
Batch or online @seize_the_dave
33.
@seize_the_dave Single user or multi
user? bit.ly/2tmQLyh
34.
@seize_the_dave Use static or dynamic
references
35.
@seize_the_dave Ignore or handle errors
36.
@seize_the_dave Transient or persistent data?
37.
@seize_the_dave One or many?
38.
@seize_the_dave Simplify outputs
39.
@seize_the_dave Split out workflow steps http://bit.ly/2tGhKHN
40.
How small is
too small?
41.
@seize_the_dave Technical stories are not
user stories
42.
@seize_the_dave Stories must have
a tangible value
43.
Problems
44.
@seize_the_dave Large overheads for scheduling
work, e.g. project sponsorship
45.
@seize_the_dave Eliminate waste, align along products geograph.ie/photo/3939164
46.
@seize_the_dave High transaction costs, e.g.
deployment risk, functional silos
47.
@seize_the_dave Cross-functional teams, continuous delivery
48.
