BluePrints

These are areas of work that need interested developers to tackle.

The Blueprints should act as the ​Requirements specification for Testers to work with.
This could start with a simple ​User Story (or a full ​Use Case)
It can then be mocked-up using ​Wireframes using a tool such as ​Dia, ​Balsamiq or just ​GoogleDoc's new Drawing functionality

We could look at following a ​Behaviour-Driven Development style to formalise requirements whilst still being ​Agile (e.g. using tools like ​pyspec or ​PyFIT).

Joel Spolsky has a good write-up on ​Why to write Functional Specs & ​How
