Agile approaches to software requirements are often focused on team level, or they are part of relatively complex methodological frameworks. This How-To-Session provides software product managers with a coherent essential requirements process on the levels of product and product line. In a highly interactive session, including a scenario-based case study, participants receive the tools for effective product requirements management.
