What Slicing Technique did we use?We started with showing most common, full data and then added more filters to fine tune the data.
In other words - We sophisticated the feature by adding more filters.

EVALUATETHE SPLIT
Does the big story satisfy INVEST* (except, perhaps, small)?
Are the new stories roughly equal in size?
Does the story describe a workflow?
Can you split the story so you do the beginning and end of the work-flow first and enhance with stories from the middle of the workflow?
Can you take a thin slice through the workflow first and
enhance it with more stories later?
Does the story include multiple operations? (e.g. is it about "managing"
or "configuring" something?)
Can you split the operations into separate stories?
Does the story have a variety of business rules? (e.g. is there a domain term in the story like "flexible dates"
that suggests several variations?)
Can you split the story so you do a subset of the rules first and
enhance with additional rules later?
Does the story do the same thing to different kinds of data? Can you split the story to
process one kind of data first and enhance with the
other kinds later?
Can you split the story to handle data from one
interface first and enhance with the others later?
Does the story get the same kind of data via multiple interfaces?
When you apply the obvious split, is whichever story you do
first the most difficult?
Could you group the later stories and defer the decision about which story comes first?
Does the story have a simple core that provides most of the
value and/or learning?
Could you split the story to do that simple core first and enhance it with later stories?
Does the story get much of its complexity from satisfying
non-functional requirements like performance?
Could you split the story to just make it work first and then enhance it to satisfy the non-functional requirement?
Are you still baffled about how to split the story?
Can you find a small piece you understand well enough to start?
Can you define the 1-3 questions most holding
you back?Take a break and try again.
Write a spike with those questions, do the minimum
to answer them, and start again at the top of this process
Write that story first, build it, and start again
at the top of this process.
Does the story have a complex interface?
Is there a simple version you could do first?
Try another pattern on the original story or the larger
post-split stories.
Try another pattern. You probably have waste
in each of your stories.
Try another pattern.
Are there stories you can deprioritize or delete?
Is there an obvious story to start with that gets you early value, learning, risk
mitigation, etc.?
Combine it with another story or otherwise reformulate it to get
a good, if large, starting story.
Is the story size 1⁄10 to 1⁄6 of your velocity?
Is each story about 1⁄10 to 1⁄6 of your velocity?
Do each of the stories satisfy INVEST?
Continue. You need to split it.
You’re done.
Try another pattern to see if you can get this.
You’re done, though youcould try another pattern
to see if it works better.

Problem
If we’re working on a story to contact customers by e-mail, the steps might be:
query db for customers;
send e-mail to customers;
retrieve delivery report;
remove bounced addresses from the system;
mark non-bounced as ‘recently contacted’
But you have to think about
spam-regulation compliance for sending e-mail
speed, accuracy & volume
personalised or generic email content
build vs. buy

Cab Route Optimisation
Most companies provide cab pick and drop services to their employees.
Company wants to
improve the utilisation of the cabs
reduce the cab expenses (lesser # of cabs, reduce total distance travelled by cabs)
reduce the time taken for employees to get to office
Constraints
Employees traveling from different locations at different times (flexi-office hours, shifts, unplanned meetings)
We need to give the cab vendor enough notice to arrange the cabs
