User stories are a simple technique to help capture requirements and build a product backlog.

Simple does not mean unsophisticated. User stories, when well written, are powerful descriptions of the conversations REAL users WANT to have with the proposed system and the benefits they want to receive.

This web briefing, by DCG’s Tom Cagley, provides a primer on User Story definition, usage, structure, style and content with examples including the role of user stories within Epics and Themes.
