Key Principles:
• Visualize work
• Limit Work In Progress (WIP)
• Manage flow
• Make policies explicit
• Implement feedback loops
• Improve collaboratively

User Stories

# User Story Format
As a [type of user]
I want [goal/desire]
So that [benefit/value]

# Example
As a registered user
I want to reset my password via email
So that I can regain access to my account if I forget my password

# Acceptance Criteria (Given-When-Then)
Given I am on the login page
When I click "Forgot Password"
And I enter my registered email
And I click "Send Reset Link"
Then I should receive an email with a password reset link
And the link should expire after 24 hours

# INVEST Criteria
□ Independent - Can be developed separately
□ Negotiable - Details can be discussed
□ Valuable - Delivers user/business value
□ Estimable - Can be sized
□ Small - Fits in a sprint
□ Testable - Has clear acceptance criteria

Story Points & Estimation

# Fibonacci Scale
1  - Trivial (< 1 hour)
2  - Simple (few hours)
3  - Straightforward (half day)
5  - Medium complexity (1-2 days)
8  - Complex (3-5 days)
13 - Very complex (1+ week)
21 - Epic (break it down!)

# Planning Poker
1. Product Owner presents story
2. Team discusses & asks questions
3. Each member secretly selects estimate
4. All reveal simultaneously
5. Discuss outliers
6. Re-vote if needed
7. Reach consensus

# Velocity Calculation
Sprint 1: 32 points completed
Sprint 2: 28 points completed
Sprint 3: 35 points completed
Average Velocity: 31.7 points/sprint

Sprint Planning

Sprint Planning Meeting

## Sprint Planning Agenda (2-4 hours)

### Part 1: What (1-2 hours)
1. Review sprint goal
2. Product Owner presents prioritized backlog
3. Team asks clarifying questions
4. Select stories for sprint commitment

### Part 2: How (1-2 hours)
1. Break stories into tasks
2. Identify dependencies
3. Assign initial owners
4. Validate capacity vs commitment

## Sprint Goal Template
"By the end of this sprint, users will be able to [specific capability],
enabling [business value]."

## Capacity Planning
Team Size: 5 developers
Sprint Length: 2 weeks (10 working days)
Meetings/Ceremonies: 1 day equivalent
PTO/Holidays: 2 days
Buffer (bugs, support): 10%

Available Capacity: (5 × 10 - 5 - 2) × 0.9 = 38.7 person-days
Historical Velocity: ~35 story points
