The document discusses user stories in user acceptance testing (UAT) time. It covers why changes to user stories during UAT need to be discussed, provides examples of common types of changes like changing a story's size or adding support, and examines what those changes mean for tasks like code, design, and testing updates. It poses the question of whether such changes can be prevented.
