This afternoon Randy Miller of Microsoft described how requirements are captured in MSF.He's currently writing "Microsoft Solutions Framework for Agile Software Development: The Definitive Guide to Microsoft's New Agile Methodology" to be published by Addison Wesley in late 2005 (my guess, not sure about that).
MSF was first developed in 1990 and has evolved over the years. Version 3, which you'll find on the web, was released in 2001. MSF is a context-driven approach. See One Size fits None at http://www.sdmagazine.com/documents/s=9575/sdm0503i/sdm0503i.html .
MSF for agile is an adaptable, minimalist approach which you want to stretch to fit instead of shrink to fit. It is a just-in-time approach to development.
One process does not fit all.
If a person has the skills, they may play a role.
The activities within an agile process needs to be able to handle small increments. Use cases can be hard when your iterations/cycles are short, and as a result you often find you have to build a slice of a use case. This can be a problem when your manager wants to know when the use case "is going to be done". Use cases are often too big, we need something smaller (e.g. user stories, features, ...).
The main requirements artifacts in MSF are personas and scenarios.
A persona is a description of a group of typical users. A persona represents a proxy for a user group, providing you with a means to talk and reason about the group through the characteristics of one fictional individual, the persona. For example, "Brendan Burke" would be a persona. Persona descriptions include a name, picture, a list of typical skills, abilities, needs, habits, tasks, and backgrounds of a particular set of users. A persona is fictional reality, collecting together real data describing the important characteristics of a particular user group in a fictional character. See http://www.steptwo.com.au/papers/kmc_personas/ The advantage of personas, if you get them right, is that the developers feel that they understand their users. They also seem to retain the information longer, because it's more personal than just discussing actors. Assuming a persona is a good way to do exploratory testing.
Scenarios are single paths of user interaction through the system. The scenario describes specific steps that they will follow to attempt reaching a goal. You want to wait to write up a scenario -- do just in time modeling in Agile MSF.
Randy overviewed the Kano satisfaction model (http://www.12manage.com/methods_kano_customer_satisfaction_model.html )

After having used a $20
straightener just to see if I'd actually use one if I had it, I finally stopped wanting to fry my hair, and decided to upgrade. I picked this one out because of the long titanium plates, and because I'd
heard an alarming amount of bad things about the Chi flat irons. I have been so happy with this straightener. My hair is super straight, smooth, and shiny. I've gotten so many compliments on my hair since
using it. It's glides right through my thick, stubborn, wavy hair. One stroke usually gets it perfect, some extremely stubborn parts take two. It's so easy and fast to use. I've got so much hair (a
hairdresser once called me "Mufasa", if that's any indication), and I'm done in about 15 minutes.
This is the best thing ever!! I live in FLorida where it is hot and humid....I have no air
conditioning in my car so I have to drive with the windows down...I have very curly, thick, and out of control hair...with all these elements it is hard to find something to make my hair stay straight. This
worked...I drove on the highway with my windows down in nice hot humid weather and it is still as perfect as when I straightened it 2 days ago!! Buy this product it is worth the money!!!
