As a Product Manager (or Product Owner in Scrum), it might be tempting to think you should write down how a feature should work and hand it to your tech team. However, the best Product Managers harness the full brainpower and experience of their team to explore and define requirements together!

In this course, you'll learn how to create user stories and acceptance tests. You'll also see how using a wiki to create company documentation promotes collaboration and encourages "living documentation," or documentation that stays updated as the product changes!

You will also learn how requirements workshops help define examples and rules collaboratively as a team. After that, you'll see how these examples and rules turn into the user stories and acceptance tests that you will later store in a wiki.

As well as learning how to define the requirements for your tech team to start work on features and user stories, we'll explore how you can test features once they are ready. And we'll examine what "done" really means for user stories and how to define it in specific cases.

Then we'll look at how to write bug reports, which effectively communicate what needs to be done. Finally, you'll learn how to use Jira, one of the most popular tools for software development!
