Example Mapping: A Structured, Collaborative Discovery Technique
summary
Example mapping lays out a concrete workflow: yellow story cards, green rule cards, red question cards for unanswered queries, and examples split into context/action/outcome on six by four index cards (or mirrored in Google Sheets, Miro, mind‑map tools or Cucumber Studio). A worked example charges one pound per item, revealing ambiguous rules turned explicit by examples. Sessions run as short daily 30‑minute meetings, keep ownership for each question, and converge with the three amigos (business, dev, test) so stories are small, testable, and ready to implement.
