Executable requirements in practice

Abstract

Executable requirements neatly combine two important XP practices: user stories and acceptance testing. They enhance communication, ease following the number of running tested features during an iteration, and work as regression tests in future iterations. This workshop does not only give an introduction to this important process, but also shows how it is used in developing a real system in front of the audience. Some of the participants can even join the fun and get real hands-on experience. © 2009 Springer Berlin Heidelberg.
