Abstract:
When we want to apply DDD, we must first master the domain. We have to identify bounded contexts and work out their ubiquitous languages. As we learn more about a domain and refine our languages, we will redraw the boarders of our bounded contexts.
In a short workshop, I will show you how we can build up domain knowledge with Domain Storytelling: We let domain experts tell us stories about their tasks. While listening, we record the stories using a pictographic language. The domain experts can see immediately if we understand their story correctly. After very few stories, we are able to talk about the people, tasks, tools, work items, and events in that domain.
Domain Stories help us to better understand a domain, to identify what is core, to segregate bounded contexts, and to constitute ubiquitous language.
