SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The DoR Validator ensures that every task entering a sprint meets clear, testable readiness criteria, reducing ambiguity and rework.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enforces mandatory readiness criteria: title, description, acceptance criteria, test approach, and dependencies.
  • Validates conditional readiness (PRD, design, ADR) when applicable and detects gaps early.
  • Generates a DoR validation report and blocks sprint start until issues are resolved.

Quick Start

Provide the task metadata to the validator and review the resulting DoR report to confirm readiness.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate the Definition of Ready for sprint tasks?▼

Automating Definition of Ready validation for sprint tasks requires checking mandatory fields like title, description, acceptance criteria, test approach, and dependencies. Providing task metadata to the validator generates a DoR report confirming readiness.

What is a Definition of Ready report and what does it check?▼

A Definition of Ready report verifies sprint tasks meet testable readiness criteria by enforcing required fields like acceptance criteria and test approach, plus conditional PRD, design, and ADR links, reducing ambiguity and rework.

Can I use Definition of Ready validation for backlog grooming and sprint planning?▼

Definition of Ready validation applies to task grooming, sprint planning, and backlog hygiene across software development projects. It detects gaps early and blocks sprint start until readiness issues are resolved.

Do I need PRD, design, and ADR links for every task during sprint validation?▼

PRD, design, and ADR links are validated as conditional readiness criteria when applicable. Mandatory validation always enforces title, description, acceptance criteria, test approach, and dependencies for every task.

What happens if a task fails Definition of Ready checks?▼

When a task fails Definition of Ready checks, the validator produces a blocking DoR report. This prevents sprint start until missing mandatory fields or conditional PRD, design, and ADR artifacts are resolved.
