The definition of ready is the entry-criterion for the Ready state on the Nutmeg Kanban board.

  • If it is a user-story it should have a story statement in the familiar format "As a {actor}, when {situation}, I can {action}, so that {benefit}"
  • If it is a defect, spike, tech-debt or system story then it should have a 1-or-2 sentence statement that does something similar to the story statement.
  • An elaboration of the story-statement, which may be called Guidelines or Description or something similar.
  • Refined - tasks have been added, in the form of markup checkboxes.
  • If it relates to a language feature then a wiki page will be prepared that gives the syntax, semantics and some examples.
  • The feature branch is specified - should be in the form "v{version}/{issueNumber}_{descriptiveTitle}". e.g. v0.1/123_autoconversion - to assist with traceability.
