Usage Guide

This prompt helps you generate user stories that follow best practices for agile development. Replace the bracketed placeholders with your specific project details, target users, business goals, and functionality areas.

Project Definition

Before creating user stories, clearly define:
- What is the product or feature you're developing?
- Who are the primary users or user personas?
- What are the key business objectives or success metrics?
- What specific functionality areas need user stories?

User Story Structure

Each user story will include:
- STORY STATEMENT: Following the format "As a [type of user], I want [an action or feature] so that [benefit/value]"
- ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA: 3-5 clear conditions that define when the story is complete
- PRIORITY: Must-Have, Should-Have, Could-Have, or Won't-Have (MoSCoW method)
- COMPLEXITY: Relative complexity rating (Simple, Medium, Complex)
- EPIC/THEME: Logical grouping of related stories
- DEPENDENCIES: Any other stories that must be completed first

User Story Organization

Your stories will be organized with:
- ID/Reference number for each story
- Logical grouping into epics or themes
- Clear prioritization based on business value
- Identification of dependencies between stories
- Brief descriptions of each user role or persona
- Coverage of different user types relevant to the project

Tips for Best Results

  • Focus on the user benefit rather than implementation details
  • Keep stories independent from each other when possible
  • Ensure each story represents a single piece of functionality that delivers value
  • Make acceptance criteria specific and testable
  • Avoid technical jargon in the user story statement
  • Consider edge cases and error scenarios in acceptance criteria
  • Balance detail with brevity – stories should be understood quickly
