Friendly note: The Definition of Ready is a guideline to help promote a better understanding of the work, prior to it being worked on. Some stories need less information, some more. Reasonable understanding to start the work is the intent.
The DoR is for the PO’s and Dev Team as well.
Defined well enough that all members of team understand what needs to be done, to a reasonable level. Preferably, in the “As a < type of user >, I want < some goal > so that < some business value reason > “ format. Exceptions are possible, however clarity is essential.
