As per Agile Manifesto Principle 6, “The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is via face-to-face conversation”. To encourage this rich form of communication, a user story card is intentionally kept as brief as possible and has 3 elements: Card: The user story card includes just enough text to identify the story because the card is simply a token that represents the requirement for the planning process. Conversation: The details of the story are communicated via a conversation – a verbal exchange of ideas, opinions, and information between the customer and the development team. Confirmation: This means that the product increment passes the customer’s acceptance test and meets the agreed upon definition of “done”.
