Clarifying requirements
On This Lesson 4 topics
This lesson is planned. The outline below lists the topics it will cover. The full lesson has not been published yet.
In this lesson
turn a vague request into testable acceptance criteria.
Planned topics
- Ask who needs it, why, and what changes for them; find the problem behind the solution.
- List unknowns and assumptions; ask about edge cases, limits, and what is out of scope.
- Write acceptance criteria as examples: "Given a delivered order, when the customer requests a return within 30 days, then ...".
- Confirm in writing with the requester.
- Ask early; a question costs minutes, a wrong build costs weeks.
