User Story

A User Story is a tool used in Agile software development to capture a description of a software feature from an end-user perspective. Coursera's User Story catalogue teaches you how to effectively articulate, document and communicate the needs and expectations of the users to the development team. You'll learn to write concise and clear user stories, identify acceptance criteria, and understand the role they play in the Product Backlog. This will enable you to bridge the gap between non-technical stakeholders and technical professionals, making you an invaluable asset in any Agile project team.
