Desarrollar una aplicación para la planificación de proyectos empleando la técnica User Story Mapping.

Abstract

The purpose of this research work is to develop an application that allows the automation of project planning in SMEs using the User Story Mapping technique to define the steps necessary for the creation of the user map and the structure within the application, thus the characteristics that the application will have to count on to comply with the planning and estimation of activities with user stories have been determined; and thus get the minimum viable product (MVP). Finally, the process flow of the requirement for its respective link in the application according to those involved was detailed. Within the proposed concepts for the understanding of the problem, it was required among the agile software development methodologies, the so-called Scrum that involves several characteristics, involved, events and artifacts that allow to guide this methodology, to be able to apply techniques and processes to meet the expected objectives. Therefore, for the development of the web application, the automation of the User Story Mapping technique was used, which consists of writing user stories and prioritizing them for the creation of the user map. For the development of this project, descriptive research was applied so that the survey technique was used with the questionnaire tool, which allowed to define the needs and requirements of those involved within it. In this way, applying the User Story Mapping technique in a software will allow all team members to participate actively to achieve collaborative work; therefore, the technique used will serve as the basis for future research due to ignorance of the existence of it.
