Here it is - the bridge from Design to Application Lifecycle Management with instant value during project definition as well as for test case planning – A true accelerator for rapid application development projects.

Sketchflow is not a standalone case tool, but as part of Expression Blend fully integrated into Microsoft’s Dev/UX portfolio.

There are two recordings I would highly recommend watching  to anybody who is serious about UI design or who is struggling with the huge amount of time it takes to agree upon project requirements with internal or external stakeholders.

Video #1

The recording that was done during Australian ReMIX 2009 and is a crisp summary of features and instant value of Sketchflow along with a sound education on history and importance of sketching as part of the development and design process. Speaker: Matt Morphett. Great thing about Matt: As a designer and former consultant for a global system integrator he is well aware of the challenges you are facing

when trying to gather requirements and agree upon a list, aka requirements document. Matt’s audience was as excited as I am and some of the initial feedback was  ‘Need to have – where / when can I get it…?’

Video #2

More of a deep dive, almost a Sketchflow Prototyping training session delivered during this year’s MIX in Las Vegas. Speaker Christian Schormann. Christian is the Group Program Manager for Expression Blend.
