The document discusses using specification-by-example (SBE) techniques to build products right. It highlights that SBE can help ensure everyone understands requirements, provide precise specifications to eliminate ambiguities, and create efficient acceptance criteria. It also notes that SBE specifies business goals, derives scope through examples, and builds living documentation through refining specifications and automated validation.
