Agile Software Development: Getting It Out the Door Successfully
Nautilus 1
The days of monolithic software development are gone. Agile (a combination of ideas from extreme programming and lean manufacturing) is now the normal practice, even amongst the largest corporations. Agile flips traditional software development on its head, moving everything into small time-boxed iterations of a few weeks. Imagine shipping software every few weeks!
Programmers who wish to learn a better way to deliver software; programmers who have heard of agile, but don’t understand what the fuss is all about; sysadmins who wish to learn a simple set of techniques to help them maintain their scripting and infrastructure automation.
An understanding of all of the key concepts for agile software development; an immediate ability to apply these concepts and improve your delivery.
- The history of agile development
- Key concepts: iterations, stories, planning, showcases, retrospectives, Kanban, and visible workflow
- How they all come together into a cohesive, radically simpler way to develop software
