Workshop on Example Mapping

Example Mapping is a simple and powerful technique for aligning understanding within a team. In this workshop, we will learn how to describe features and user stories through rules, examples, acceptance criteria, and test case titles.

Key benefits of Example Mapping:

• Shared understanding: the team speaks the same language, avoiding misunderstandings and unnecessary work;

• Thorough elaboration: backlog items can be detailed and testing can begin at an earlier stage;

• Clear boundaries: it is always clear when enough information has been gathered to move forward;

• Structured discussion: backlog refinement sessions become more organised and productive.

In addition, Example Mapping is an excellent way to prepare clear requirements for writing tests — including tests as requirements for AI-assisted code generation.
