Dear All,
First of all, I wish you a very happy new year for 2021! Are you busy? For me, the first few weeks have not been very intense. Usually there are not many trainings in the first months and I really have to force myself to progress on other duties I have. Especially since we’ve just got the first snow this winter… Who wants to work when this happens? (In Hungary there are usually only a few weeks of snow only, and it is getting less and less.) But the newsletter (and YOU, dear reader) is an exception.

But how valuable is the documentation if nobody uses it? In this section we are focusing on how to make our living documentation better accessible to all stakeholders. In a remote environment this is particularly important.

In Part 1 we have discussed how we can ensure shared understanding in remote environments using examples during the online requirement workshops. As mentioned there, those workshops focused on getting the most out of the precious time together, therefore the result (the rules and the examples) have been captured in a simple form, not using Given/When/Then.
