In software development, a story is a unit of work that represents a single feature or functionality of a software application. Stories are used to break down a larger project into smaller, more manageable units, and are often used in Agile development methodologies.
A user story template is a pre-defined format for documenting and managing stories. It typically includes fields for the story's title, description, acceptance criteria, and other relevant details. By using a story template, you can ensure that all stories are documented in a consistent and organized manner, which makes it easier to manage them over time.
