Acceptance Criteria Workshop
Purposedifferent
When teams want to rate complexity rather than hours, it creates a shared, relative scale. It sorts work by value, risk, and delivery ability. The result is captured as Point Estimates, Reference Stories, and Velocity Data.When effort only needs to be classified roughly, it makes comparability more important than false precision. It helps sort work quickly into manageable sizes.When a story needs clear checkpoints before implementation, it sharpens expectation and scope together. It sorts work by value, risk, and delivery ability. The result is captured as Acceptance Criteria and a Story Update.
