Booking 2.0 Beta 2

Standard documentation

2.1 Introduction

In line with the techniques used in software development, 永利皇宫app下载注册 has incorporated user stories and use cases into the standards development process to support the digitalization efforts of the shipping industry. Both user stories and use cases serve the purpose of capturing and documenting requirements, but they differ in granularity, level of detail, and the stages of the development process in which they are most prominently used. They are complementary (a user story may be supported by one or more use cases and vice versa) and can be used together to provide a comprehensive understanding of software requirements. In this section we will focus on user stories.User stories are typically a concise, informal description of a feature or functionality written from an end user's or stakeholder perspective. They express the needs, goals, and expectations of users in a way that is easily understandable to ensure the delivered product meets the intended requirements. In standards development, this translates to creating testable acceptance criteria to validate that the standard is correctly implemented and achieves its intended purpose.The next paragraph provides a few examples of user stories that 永利皇宫app下载注册 has relied on to develop the standard for the Booking process. The supporting use cases are defined in the dedicated booking use cases page.
