Storyotype

Definition of Storyotype
A stereotype or template for a Story or Epic. Storyotypes are used to capture re-useful information common to many Stories; in particular, Storyotypes are used to capture common Standards of Care.
Examples

The Definition of Done is often common across Stories that are of the same Storyotype .
