We are committed to finding the right role for requirements & specifications in an Agile world.
Our belief is that it is possible to capture and express the conversation that is happening around a feature as an evolving document.
That is why we have been developing Delibr for 2 years in collaboration with a global community of ~150 product owners from across tech.
We now believe we have solved the three main problems that has so far prevented "agile specs" from becoming a reality.
3 big problems with feature refinement we try to solve
Structure
- How to keep track of questions being discussed across problems and across channels?
-
How to summarize to your team & stakeholders what has been said so far, so that their input can be incorporated hassle-free?
The Delibr Way
-
Write explicit questions in your spec
-
Add options, pros/cons, ratings, and comments where needed
-
Log your decisions and collapse questions for readability
Follow-up
- How to enable "agile specs" to evolve in several iterations, without everyone having to read every version of every document?
- How to keep track of what input has been asked of whom, and whether they have replied, without it taking to much time?
The Delibr Way
-
Make assignments to specific parts of your document instead of the whole document
-
Track progress on assignments
Continuity
- How to make details from the refinement step accessible also to the developer in Jira, without duplication of work?
- How to allow for continued discussion after hand-over to Jira, without decoupling from insights found during refinement?
The Delibr Way
-
Write user stories at end of refinement doc, with details added as needed
-
Turn doc into Jira epic, and stories into Jira issues, and see details via Jira plugin
-
Extend Delibr doc when new topics surface during development, with maintained link back into Jira
