Building the perfect product backlog

Agile teams rely on product owners to identify the most valuable requirements, describe features at the appropriate level of detail, and continuously adjust product backlogs to meet changing needs. These essential activities minimize the risk of your team measuring progress towards an ineffective business solution. In this session, learn how to translate high-level requirements into actionable features, use value-driven prioritization to manage your backlog, handle requirement dependencies, and keep everything in sync with emerging information.

Aim for INVEST:
Independent
Negotiable
Valuable
Estimable
Small
Testable

- Split the story:
- Go through workflow steps by role
- Devolve compound statements
- Clarify ambiguous terms like “manage” or “process”
