Best Practices

Writing Good Summaries

• Start with a verb: "Add", "Fix", "Update", "Implement"
• Be specific and concise
• Avoid vague terms

Good: "Add password reset via email" Bad: "Fix login stuff"

Writing Acceptance Criteria

Write testable criteria:

• "User sees confirmation message after booking"
• "API returns 400 for invalid input"
• "Page loads in under 2 seconds"
