#52-Changing Change, Part 1 4:46

cách đây 21 ngày trước4:46

cách đây 11 weeks trước2:51

cách đây 13 weeks trước3:45

#25-Enumerate Your Stakeholders 2:55

cách đây 33 weeks trước2:55

2:55

Over the last two weeks I discussed the power of list-making in an agile project. This week, I dig into the details of one very important list, which is a list of the stakeholders to a given product, project, or feature.

#24-The Power of Lists Part 2 2:54

cách đây 34 weeks trước2:54

2:54

Last week I introduced the notion of a team to-do list, and how important this artifact is during the development of a feature. That list should be curated once the work is done. How that curation is accomplished the the subject of this episode.

cách đây 35 weeks trước2:45

#22-Know What it Means to be Done 3:26

cách đây 36 weeks trước3:26

3:26

In agile processes, we need discrete definitions of every important aspect of our work, so that we can work efficiently and effectively together, and to know when organizational goals have been achieved. Part of this is knowing when the work is "done", and that's what this episode is all about.

#19-Build Quality In Part 1 2:48

cách đây 39 weeks trước2:48

2:48

Part of the Agile approach, as well as the tenets of Lean, say to "build quality in." This seems wise, but what specifically is meant by "quality"? Also, how can we know if we have imbued our product with enough of the required qualities to make it releasable? The next three episodes will examine the notion of quality using a hopefully familiar analogy.…

#18-Understand What A Good Test Is 3:50

cách đây 40 weeks trước3:50

3:50

TDD can help you to improve your product design for many reasons. One of them is that it is difficult, if not impossible to write a good test for a bad design. But what is a good test? How would we know if it's good in the right sense? That's what this episode will explain.

cách đây 41 weeks trước5:56

cách đây 42 weeks trước3:22

#15-Agile Comes From a Shift in Systems Criticality 2:48

cách đây 43 weeks trước2:48

2:48

The world has changed, and so has the technology we use to automate it. But a lot of the traditions that guide our efforts to control automation projects are based on the realities that existed in the past. Agile is a response to this, and this episode is all about why, and how this is so.

#14-Share With Colleagues the King Henry School of Argument 3:00

cách đây 44 weeks trước3:00

When collaborating with others, sometimes you will encounter reticence to ask or answer important questions. There are a number of reasons for this, but in this episode I will outline an approach I take to counter this, one which has served me well in multiple occasions.

#13-Assess the Business Process Impact of New Projects 3:53

cách đây 45 weeks trước3:53

When creating something new of value, one must always consider the context within which it will operate.

#12-Sharpen Your Analysis Skills with CVA 2:56

cách đây 46 weeks trước2:56

2:56

Analysis is a fundamental part of system's development. It is also one of the most difficult things to do right, and since everything that follows is based on it we need multiple skills to do it correctly. Commonality-Variability Analysis, as suggested in the work of James O. Coplien, is a remarkably powerful approach to conducting requirements analysis.…

#11-TDD Enhances QA But Does Not Replace it 2:50

cách đây 47 weeks trước2:50

2:50

Test-Driven Development (TDD) is not really a testing activity per-se, but an analysis process that drives product design. That said, although it does not eliminate the need for after-development testing (QA/QC), it does contribute to that process. This episode will show why this is.

#40-Writing Specifications as Tests 3:35

cách đây 15 weeks trước3:35

3:35

Last week I pointed out that Test-Driven Development, even though it is named as it is, is not a testing activity but rather the creation of an executable specification. So how does this change how they are written? That's the subject of this episode.

This is kind of a fun one. I start by pointing out that, regardless of appearances, computers are not really doing any of the things we think they are doing.

#27-Why Design Patterns are Agile 3:04

cách đây 31 weeks trước3:04

3:04

If you are familiar with the concept of a "Design Pattern" you may well feel that they reflect an older view of development. Indeed, the patterns were first identified before the popularity of agile approaches. That said, they are entirely agile, and this episode is about why that is.
