This workshop course teaches students how to perform business analysis for agile projects. The course includes best practices for eliciting, analyzing, specifying and verifying requirements. Students learn how to model users, write user stories, and derive use cases. For evolving requirements, this course shows how to perform just-in-time elaboration of features, and how to incorporate late changes during agile iterations.
