Explanation
In Agile, an Epic is a large user story that is too big to deliver in a single iteration. The CURB acronym characterizes what makes a story an epic: Complex (has many unknowns or dependencies), Unknown (requirements are not yet well understood), Risky (carries significant technical or business risk), or Big (too large to complete within one sprint). When a story meets one or more CURB criteria, it should be decomposed into smaller, manageable user stories before development.
