What are the INVEST principles in user story writing?

INVEST is a guide for high-quality stories: Independent, Negotiable, Valuable, Estimable, Small, and Testable.

What is story slicing?

Story slicing is the process of breaking down a large requirement (an Epic) into smaller, functional pieces that can be completed within a single sprint.

Can this skill help with technical debt or API stories?

Yes, the skill includes specific patterns for technical stories, performance optimization, and backend improvements that don't follow the traditional user-facing format.

Does it support Gherkin syntax for testing?

Absolutely. It provides templates for writing acceptance criteria in the Given/When/Then format, making stories ready for Behavior-Driven Development (BDD).
