The Iterative Model
Build what you need
Never used

Rarely
Create the product that the user needs. And do it fast!
Test - Build - Adjust
User Stories
Condition
I must be able to change my email
I need to see a sorted list of products
I must be able to create a ticket to the
system admins
I must be able to register a bug
Perspective
As an editor
As a new user
As a teacher
As a registered customer
Value Statement
So that I am always updated with the
latest info
So that I don’t need to contact an
administrator
So that I don’t need to spend time filling out all information every
time.
As a <type of user>, I want <some goal>, so that <some reason>

Know what you don’t know
Story points vs time
● “How complicated is the task compared to the other task”
● It is way easier for the human brain to compare two elements than describe an isolated element
● Gives more valid estimates
How to handle what you don’t know?
So how long will it take to do this?
I don’t know….150-250 hoursfrom what i know now
Ok so 150 hours !!! !!
VS
● The value of the Story Points will be variable through the project. (only a problem if you forget it!)
Story Points
Which one will take the longest time?? How long will it take to assemble?(No, we don’t have the manual)?

We need to make a lot of customisation and create our own modules
But there are some good modules that can solve 95% of the wishes out of the box.

Results
Accurate estimation
• When estimating tasks at sprint startup we bring our learnings from the project so far into consideration
• When doing planning poker as a team we support knowledge sharing. This also makes the estimates more precise since we commit to the story point as a team.
But there’s always a but
Implementing agile methods is hard work.• Get the customer on board• Some customers are simply not ready for agile• On smaller projects it can be difficult to implement
- Not enough time to learn
No two organisations are the same!
Customize!
One slide to rule them all
Where is the customer???
