Abstract :
User Stories are short feature descriptions from the user´s point of view. Functional tests ensure that the feature described by a User Story is fully implemented. We present a tool that builds an ontology for code and links completed User Stories in natural language with the related code artifacts. The ontology also contains links to API components that were used to implement the functional tests. Preliminary results show that these links can be used to recommend reusable test steps for new User Stories.
