Question 179 - Certified Business Analyst discussion

The mistake that the business analyst made when writing this user story was that the story included feature-specific language rather than focusing on what needs to be achieved by implementing this feature or functionality. For example, specifying that ''a customer service representative wants to use Salesforce Macros'' implies a particular design choice rather than describing what outcome should be achieved by reducing the time spent on each case (such as automating repetitive tasks or streamlining workflows). User stories should be aligned with the user's goal rather than prescribing how to achieve it so that they do not limit creativity or innovation in finding solutions. User stories should also be small and testable so that they can be easily verified by using techniques such as scenarios or test cases. The incorrect persona was not used in the story because customer service representative is a valid user role or persona who will benefit from this feature or functionality. The story explained the value to the user rather than focusing on what needs to be achieved by implementing this feature or functionality because reducing the time spent on each case is a benefit or value that the customer service representative will get from this feature or functionality.
