# 2 Product backlog























  • Product backlog is owned by the product owner

  • It is the wish list of the features to be developed

  • During the sprint planning meeting, a subset of the features from the product backlog is taken up for production.

  • Before taken up for production, the product backlog entries are elaborated into user stories

  • A user story contains a narration of the feature to be developed, the accetance test cases for that feature.

  • All clarifications that happens during the feature development are captured as conversations in the product backlog.

  • The product backlog entry and the user story provides sufficient information for the tem members to estimate and develop the features. This replaces the conventional software requirements specification.
