Discover a collaborative, two-way approach to development through behavior driven development, illustrating requirements and forming executable specifications, automated acceptance tests, and acceptance test driven development to reduce defects.
Discover how the three amigos technique boosts clarity, collaboration, and the surfacing of hidden assumptions in any agile project, even without BDD or cucumber, by using concrete examples.
Move through the Three Amigos perspectives—user, developer, and QA—to explore the scope of a user story by identifying examples and counterexamples of business rules, constraints, and user journeys.
Demonstrate a practical three amigos session for a mobile banking feature, named savings account, with Patti, Sam, Bob, Dana, Tommy, and Fran aligning requirements and roles.
Learn how to transform three amigos outputs into executable specifications using Gherkin given-when-then notation, enabling shared understanding and automated acceptance tests that codify business rules.
Use ChatGPT and generative ai to accelerate high level requirements discovery, vision statements, user journeys, and test strategy in early projects, with prompts for impact mapping.
Define high level acceptance criteria for epics and translate them into user stories using the as I want so that format, with AI assistance in a Three Amigos session.
