Assignment 3.3 CIS 623-T301: Software Testing and Quality Professor: James Ashbaugh Bellevue University User stories for the Poker Exercise ✓ As a responsible adult, I would like to tie my shoes, so that I don’t trip and fall. ✓ As a consumer, I would like to drive to the neighborhood market, so that I can buy groceries. ✓ As a local traveler, I would like to drive to Ogallala Nebraska, so that I can take a short vacation for 3 days. ✓ As a world traveler, I would like to fly to Shanghai China, so that I can take an extended vacation for 3 weeks. Product Owner Role For user Story 1: Stephanie Brubaker was the product owner For user Story 2: Chaitanya Mulakala was the product owner For user Story 3: Anand was the product owner For user Story 4: Harish Lanka was the product owner Estimation process As we are of four people in the team, we have discussed about who should sign up on planningpoker.com. So Stephanie Brubaker has joined in the planningpoker.com, and afterward she embedded the four user stories into the task board. Subsequent to joining, Steph posted the website link on discussion board as the greater part of the colleagues could open up the cpalnningpoker.com and we ensure that all the individuals were online for beginning the poker exercise. Later we started the poker exercise by estimating each story and then the results were posted on thread for discussions. Before starting the discussion for each user story we assigned a product owner and team members. So each product owner of a user story asks the reason to the team members for their estimations. In this poker exercise we have performed two rounds in order to have the same estimations. Poker Estimation Results: Round 1 story 1: Steph & Chaithanya - 1/2 Anand- 1 Harish -3 Story 2: Steph & Harish -2 Chaithanya - 3 Anand - 1 Story 3: Steph & Harish- 8 Anand & Chaithanya- 5 Story 4: Steph, Harish, Anand -20 Chaithanya -40 Round 2 Story 1 – All the team members estimated as 1/2 Story 2 - All the team members estimated as 1 Story 3 - All the team members estimated as 5 Story 4 - All the team members estimated as 20 For the second round we all had the same scores that is why we didn't have to play round 3. Major Challenges while performing the poker exercise Some of the challenges we encountered, where finding a time when everyone could play the poker game. The planningpoker.com site itself, I think it is poorly put together since everyone must be logged in at the same time in order to play and the leader is the only one who can move from one story to the next. Assumptions for each user story Basically, I thought the assumptions of each team member would be different but after looking at the estimates of others, I see that some of assumptions were matching with few of my team members. As it is a group exercise, the assumptions of each individual would be different Reaching agreement on the final sizing of each work effort After finishing the estimation process, we just pasted the poker exercise results on the group discussion thread. And then the product owner started asking the reasons for the estimates so we started sharing our ideas and opinions in order to support our estimates. But finally, all of my team members were agreeing with each other and performed round two for better results. For the second round we all had the same scores that is why we didn't have to play round 3. In this way have Reached agreement on the final sizing of each work effort User stories for the Poker Exercise ✓ As a responsible adult, I would like to tie my shoes, so that I don’t trip and fall. ✓ As a consumer, I would like to drive to the neighborhood market, so that I can buy groceries. ✓ As a local traveler, I would like to drive to Ogallala Nebraska, so that I can take a short vacation for 3 days. ✓ As a world traveler, I would like to fly to Shanghai China, so that I can take an extended vacation for 3 weeks.
