Generation of stories for development is possible from a business process drawn in UPN notation. To learn more about how to draw processes in UPN consult:
How story generation works
UPN notation can be characterized as a 'story mapping' technique. This is because the activities, inputs, outputs and resources used naturally form the structure of a story.
Below is an example of how a UPN process activity would be interpreted by ElementsGPT into a story record:
A Story record is generated from a process activity for a single human resource (it is a user story after all). If there are many human roles assigned to an activity, then there will be a separate story generated for each Resource. Using the RASCI role feature will assist in distinguishing these stories.
How to generate stories
The most important factor in generating quality user stories is creating a complete UPN process diagram that captures relevant information. especially on outputs. The more information that is captured in a diagram, the better the AI analysis, resulting in generation of better stories.
In order to actually generate stories with ElementsGPT, right-click on the selected box and choose 'Generate stories (AI)' from the context menu:
Resource types
The stories generated will depend on the types of resource you have added to an activity.
Human resources
Stories will be generated in the form of "As a... I want... so that...".
A story is generated per human resource. If additional system resources are specified, they should be mentioned in the story and/or acceptance criteria, but a story will not be generated for the systems themselves.
System and other resources
When only system, or other resource types, are specified, stories will be generated in the form of "When... [System] needs to... so that...".
Restrictions
Stories can only be generated from a UPN activity when:
The Activity box has at least one input line and one output line
The box has at least one resource on it
