  • Feature specifications – written as user stories and agile feature requirements on a per sprint basis and stored in TFS – written (often with pictures/mockups/prototypes) to illustrate how users interact with our features. These don’t cover architecture, design, or implementation details that are the domain of development, but good ones will absolutely influence those things.
