Hypothesis Prioritization Canvas
Purposedifferent
When business rules need to become precise, it ties language, example, and test together. It sorts work by value, risk, and delivery ability. The result is captured as an Example Table and Acceptance Tests.The Test Card turns a critical assumption into a testable claim and specifies in advance which result counts as success.When many hypotheses compete for attention, it brings order to their learning sequence and importance. It separates problem, assumption, solution, and evidence. The result is captured as a prioritization canvas and a hypothesis backlog.
