This document discusses techniques for splitting large user stories into smaller stories for an agile team. It provides examples of splitting stories by workflow, business rules, operations, data, performance, and interface. Some key techniques include focusing first on the happy path, starting with foundational capabilities like create/read, prioritizing the most important rules, and keeping the interface simple initially. Splitting stories properly allows teams to learn, adapt, and deliver working functionality in short iterations.
Acceptance criteria define specific, measurable conditions that must be met for a user story or feature to be accepted. They help ensure stakeholders have a shared understanding of what needs to be delivered before development begins. Good acceptance criteria are independent of implementation, written from the user perspective, and use a format like Given, When, Then. They describe what is expected rather than how it will be implemented. Acceptance criteria should be defined before development starts to guide testing and determine when a user story is complete.

The importance of quality and food safety cannot be neglected in the present business scenario
due to extreme competition in open market. Many food industrialists have understood the
importance of implementation of system that can eliminate non- conformance products, as these
may help the company in preventing negative consequences like economical losses and helps to
protect the reputation of brand. The design of food safety management system for managing
non- conformance in industry may either support or hinder the effectiveness of continuous
improvement policy.
A non-conformance is involved when a process or a system failsto comply with the rules or meet
the required specifications of an audit standard(ISO 22000, IRC, BRC, SQC etc.). A requirement is a need, expectation, or obligation. It can be stated or implied by an organization, its customers,
or other interested parties. There are many types of requirements. Some of these include food
safety requirements, quality requirements, process requirements, product requirements,
customer requirements, management systems requirements, and legal requirements. Whenever
your organization fails to meet one of these requirements, a nonconformity occurs, and it mostly
occurs in the production and manufacturing processes like Supply chain management, inventory,
and material management process etc. It mainly asks for a rework which requires the
involvement of various personnel from the respective departments.

Techniques for Effectively Slicing User Stories by Naresh JainNaresh Jain
In order to achieve my goals, as a buyer of your product, I want awesome feature. AT: make sure your users stories don't get in the way.
Users Stories, the tool teams use to break big ideas into small demonstrable deliverable, are easy to describe and challenging to write effectively. In this hands-on workshop you'll learn how to write great user stories and acceptance criteria, that everyone on the team understands. We'll learn various techniques to slice your stories using the tracer-bullet approach. We will discuss what elements should be included in the stories, what criteria you should keep in mind while slicing stories; why the size of your user story is important and how to make them smaller and efficient.
Agenda:
What do you do to Large Stories? Spike, Split, Stub & Timebox (SSST) technique.
Core Slicing Techniques:
1. System Slice
1.a. Static vs. Dynamic
1.b. Real-time vs. Batch Processing
1.c. Build vs. Buy
1.d. Automated vs. Manual Steps

Life cycle of user story: Outside-in agile product management & testing, or...Ravi Tadwalkar
It has always been my pleasure and fun to facilitate workshops for PM (product management) community at and outside Cisco, although this was first time I did a BDD workshop with PMs alone. And I realized today how PayPal has been a really great venue for SVPMA annual product camp "unconference" for 1k+ PMs with 550 waitlisted this year! I look forward to this event every year now...huge success!
Abstract:
As Product Owners and Managers are driving innovation thru' those fuzzy ideas in terms of scenarios, testers have always been thinking about those in form of test cases which take form of acceptance criteria for those scenarios. When you talk about those scenarios to your teams or even peers, you see those diverging ideas converging to something concrete.
That's how BDD helps you shape that idea. That fuzzy scenario, when validated thru' an engineering "spike", can be useful for product management MRD/PRD/use-case-models/stories...whatever it is that you want to use to drive product development.
And this is where Agile Tester role begins! So instead of doing top-down or bottoms-up product management & testing, try this outside-in approach. Go for it!
My workshop on BDD is about what I term as "Outside-in agile product management". To understand what I really mean by that, here is my slideshare presentation used rarely when teaching from the back of the class during this hyper-interactive workshop.
The VIMM model provides a framework to optimize user experience across visual, intellectual, memory, and motor loads. It suggests minimizing each type of load, such as using visual hierarchy and emphasis to guide the eye and simplify decision-making. Following the model can improve usability by matching screen flows to tasks, using intuitive grouping and labeling, consistent controls, recognition over recall, and reducing unnecessary interactions.
Developing Information Architecture with Non-Technical StakeholdersVanessa Turke
This document provides an overview of developing information architecture with non-technical stakeholders. It discusses identifying project stakeholders, conducting research such as stakeholder interviews and content analysis, organizing and labeling content, designing navigation and information models through methods like card sorting, and creating deliverables like wireframes. The goal is to facilitate stakeholder involvement in developing an effective information architecture for a website or software.
The document discusses notes from the 2014 API Craft conference. Several topics are mentioned, including hypermedia, affordances, building hypermedia servers, documenting APIs, and the future of mobile APIs. Hypermedia is presented as a way to avoid hardcoding clients, reduce versioning problems, and make resource relations and states discoverable. Challenges with hypermedia include unclear definitions, payload size, and potential bad user experiences on mobile. The document also provides suggestions for how to work with APIs still in development and resources related to topics from the conference.

Writing Memos
The context of professional writing
Why write memos?
How to write them?
How to make them better?
3
The Context
The workplace or field:
◦ Time is precious.
◦ Information has substantive as well as political implications.
The decision-maker as reader:
◦ Busy and distracted (attention “spread thin”), not necessarily patient while you get to the point.
◦ Info needs are varied, unpredictable, fluid.
◦ Decision-maker sometimes offers vague instructions.
4
Academic vs. professional writing
Differences (when writing concisely)
◦ The academic reader often demands nuance and relevance to established lines of thinking, while the
professional reader wants the “so what’s” for their decision making emphasized (relevance to their
actions).
◦ An academic assignment assumes a small and benevolent audience, but professional documents can be
“leaked,” end up in the hands of unintended readers.
Similarities
◦ Strong essays and strong memos both start with your main ideas, but essays usually build toward
conclusion and synthesis. The memo’s conclusions are usually right up top.
◦ In both, persuasive argument = clear viewpoint + evidence
◦ In both, addressing counter-arguments tends to strengthen your case.
5
Top mistakes in memos
Content:
◦ off point or off task (major substantive
omissions, given the request);
◦ impolitic (risks political costs if leaked);
◦ inappropriate assumptions as to
background knowledge;
◦ no evidence.
Organization:
◦ important info “buried,”
◦ no summary up top, format confusing,
not “skim-able.”
◦ Sentences long and d ...

Microservice Teams - How the cloud changes the way we workSven Peters
A lot of technical challenges and complexity come with building a cloud-native and distributed architecture. The way we develop backend software has fundamentally changed in the last ten years. Managing a microservices architecture demands a lot of us to ensure observability and operational resiliency. But did you also change the way you run your development teams?
Sven will talk about Atlassian’s journey from a monolith to a multi-tenanted architecture and how it affected the way the engineering teams work. You will learn how we shifted to service ownership, moved to more autonomous teams (and its challenges), and established platform and enablement teams.

Need for Speed: Removing speed bumps from your Symfony projects ⚡️Łukasz Chruściel
No one wants their application to drag like a car stuck in the slow lane! Yet it’s all too common to encounter bumpy, pothole-filled solutions that slow the speed of any application. Symfony apps are not an exception.
In this talk, I will take you for a spin around the performance racetrack. We’ll explore common pitfalls - those hidden potholes on your application that can cause unexpected slowdowns. Learn how to spot these performance bumps early, and more importantly, how to navigate around them to keep your application running at top speed.
We will focus in particular on tuning your engine at the application level, making the right adjustments to ensure that your system responds like a well-oiled, high-performance race car.

Graspan: A Big Data System for Big Code AnalysisAftab Hussain
We built a disk-based parallel graph system, Graspan, that uses a novel edge-pair centric computation model to compute dynamic transitive closures on very large program graphs.
We implement context-sensitive pointer/alias and dataflow analyses on Graspan. An evaluation of these analyses on large codebases such as Linux shows that their Graspan implementations scale to millions of lines of code and are much simpler than their original implementations.
These analyses were used to augment the existing checkers; these augmented checkers found 132 new NULL pointer bugs and 1308 unnecessary NULL tests in Linux 4.4.0-rc5, PostgreSQL 8.3.9, and Apache httpd 2.2.18.
