Agile BA roles: User Discovery
Agile BA roles: User Research: This must be done before starting planning, designing or building.
- who your likely users are and what they’re trying to do
- how they do it currently (for example, what services or channels they use)
- the problems or frustrations they experience
- what users need from your service to achieve their goal
Agile BA roles: Story Mapping
The BA support the UI/UX designer with in story Mapping to capture user journey.
- It is part of the discovery phase
- It is an effective inception tool to create a product backlog in a visually structured way
Story mapping consists of ordering user stories along two independent dimensions. The "map" arranges user activities along the horizontal axis in rough order of priority (or "the order in which you would describe activities to explain the behaviour of the system"). Down the vertical axis, it represents increasing sophistication of the implementation.
Story Map Structure:
Goals > Activities > Tasks > Stories or Goals>Features>EPIC (Sub- features)>Stories
Structure based on 'User Journeys' : User > Goals > User Journeys > Actions > Stories.
Structure based on Non-functional requirements NFR: NFR > Requirement > Story
