Workshop: Employing User Stories & Use Cases Synergistically in the Practice & Teaching of Systems Analysis & Design

To describe functional requirements, agile approaches prefer the brevity of user stories over more detailed use cases. But many software projects are inconsistent with agile assumptions, leading to the familiar idea of elaborating user stories with use cases. However, little specific guidance exists for doing this. This workshop provides that guidance, including a tutorial example. Further, we illustrate how use case principles can improve writing user stories, even when use cases, themselves, are not employed Presented by Gary Spurrier and Heikki Topi
