What is the main purpose of user stories in an agile setting?

- To fully document exactly what the team is supposed to build

You Answered: B
Correct Answer: A
The user story should be a brief description of a stakeholder need. Additional details are developed to support the story and guide the team to developing a useful solution. Remember that it’s more important to satisfy stakeholders’ needs than to produce comprehensive documentation (unless the stakeholder’s explicit need is comprehensive documentation).
