Estimate These 10

Jun/10 PB Agile Workshop - Day 2 37

Backlog Item Estimate

1 As an employee, I can request time off. (Note: automatically reject if exceeds person’s annual limit

2 As a supervisor, I can approve or reject a time off request, giving a reason why if I reject it

3 As an employee, I am automatically notified when my request is accepted or rejected

4 As a supervisor, I am notified whenever someone requests time off

5 As a user, I must be logged into the system

6 As a supervisor, I want a screen showing all requests waiting on me to approve or reject them

7 As an employee, I can check on the status of my time off request

8 As an absent-minded user, I can request a new password be sent to me

9 As the HR department, I want a report that I can run showing all requested time off and accepted/rejected status over a specific date range

10
