User Story
Definition of User Story:
A user story is a short, non-technical statement of a product requirement written from the user’s point of view. A user story is usually written according to the following structure:
“As a ❮type of user❯, I want to ❮perform some task❯ so I can ❮achieve some goal.❯”

The Product Owner prioritizes the stories in the sprint backlog that are to be developed sprint during the sprint planning meeting. The team members assign story points to each story to estimate the effort needed to finish the individual stories, and break them down into tasks to be completed during the sprint. When the iteration or sprint is completed, the team should have produced a functional product or deliverable that corresponds to the initial requirement specified in the story.
