Which characteristic describes a good user story according to the f.N.V.E.S.T. mnemonic?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

According to the INVEST mnemonic, a good user story should be Valuable. This means that the user story must deliver value to the customer or stakeholder. Each user story should have a clear purpose, ensuring that the effort invested in its development contributes to the overall product value. Other criteria of the INVEST mnemonic include Independent, Negotiable, Estimable, Small, and Testable, but 'Valuable' is key to justifying the user story's inclusion in the product backlog.


PMI Disciplined Agile (DA) Toolkit, which outlines the INVEST criteria for user stories and emphasizes the need for stories to deliver value.

PMI Agile Practice Guide, which describes the characteristics of well-formed user stories using the INVEST mnemonic.

I agree, "Tangible" doesn't fit the mnemonic.

I'm pretty confident that "Valuable" is the correct answer since it aligns with what we discussed in class about prioritizing user needs.

I feel like "Tangible" could fit, but I can't recall if it was specifically mentioned in the context of user stories.

I remember practicing a question about user stories, and I think "Incremental" might be related to how we break down tasks, but it doesn't feel right for this mnemonic.

I think the "V" in F.N.V.E.S.T. stands for Valuable, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only characteristic.

I've got this! The f.N.V.E.S.T. mnemonic stands for Feasible, Negotiable, Valuable, Estimable, Small, and Testable. So the characteristic that describes a good user story is Valuable. Easy peasy!

Okay, let me see if I can break this down. The question is asking about a characteristic of a good user story, and the f.N.V.E.S.T. mnemonic is a way to remember those characteristics. I think Valuable is the right answer, but I'll double-check my notes just to be sure.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on this one. I know the f.N.V.E.S.T. mnemonic is important for user stories, but I can't quite remember what each letter stands for. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm pretty sure the answer is Valuable, since the f.N.V.E.S.T. mnemonic is all about defining good user stories, and one of the key characteristics is that the story should provide value to the user.

This is a tricky one. My gut says A) Incremental, since user stories should be broken down into smaller, manageable pieces.
