Define DoR and DoD

[kailafoote]

A Definition of Ready (DoR) is a set of standards that must be met before a product backlog item can be considered for development.

The Definition of Done (DoD) outlines the minimum acceptable criteria that must be met for a feature or task to be considered complete.

User Story

As a Product Owner, I want to define the Definition of Ready (DoR) and Definition of Done (DoD) for my product backlog items, so that the development team has clear guidelines and criteria to evaluate the completeness and quality of each item before it is considered ready for the next stage of development.

Acceptance Criteria

1. The DoR and DoD criteria have been clearly outlined and agreed upon by all stakeholders
2. The criteria includes relevant checks such as requirements, design, testing, documentation, and approvals
3. The criteria are flexible and can be updated as needed to align with the evolving needs of the product and development team
4. The criteria are consistently applied to all product backlog items to ensure consistency and fairness in the development process.
