Story
A story is a software system
requirement formulated as a few
sentences in the everyday language of
the user that can be completed within
an Iteration. A story is "done" when:
§ All code checked in
§ All developer tests pass
§ All acceptance tests pass
§ Help text is written
§ Product Owner accepted
Iteration
An iteration is a theme-driven timebox of
requests to be worked on and accepted
within a release of a product, it is defined
in an iteration planning meeting and is
completed with an iteration demo and
review meeting. The terms Iteration and
Sprint are used synonymously. An iteraion
is "done" when:
§ Product backup complete
§ Performance tested
§ Defects fixed or postponed
Release
A release is milestone representing the
internal or external delivery of a working,
tested version of the System. A release is
"done" when:
§ Stress tested
§ Performance tuned
§ Security validation passes
§ Disaster recovery plan tested
