For software & IT teams
A change must preserve the behavior that matters.
A new sign-in flow must preserve an existing customer path. Is that requirement reflected in the inspected implementation, or has a condition changed? The first story follows that comparison.
Our proposed starting point is one change in an existing software system. These illustrative situations show the questions we would investigate with your team—not results from customer projects.

A release needs a reviewable basis.
A result says the tests passed. But does it refer to the exact implementation under review? The person approving delivery needs the connection between the requirement, assessed version and supporting evidence.
Reviewing the basis for a releaseThe starting question: would clearer project knowledge help your team deliver this change?
