VIDEOSTREAM OF EXPERT PANEL ON AGILE SOFTWARE
DEVELOPMENT
At the next XP meeting (tomorrow, Thursday) George
Smith from
Asix will show us a videostream from JavaOne, "Expert
Panel on
Agile Development". After this we will have a Q&A
session.
Directions on how to get to the meeting are at the
bottom of the
message. Thanks to Asix for acquiring the videostream
and sharing
it with us.
DETAILS ON PANEL DISCUSSION
The speakers in this discussion will be: Scott Ambler,
Martin
Fowler, David Hecksel, Alan Shalloway, Brendan
McCarthy.
The Agile Modeling Panel consists of industry experts
on "agile"
and "lightweight" software-development methodologies.
These
experts have hands-on experience successfully
transitioning teams
to be more efficient, agile, productive, and
responsive.
The moderator starts the presentation by introducing
the concept
of a "project context" and the importance of selecting
a
methodology that best fits the project context.
The moderator asks the panelists a series of
questions,
including:
. How do I formulate and document requirements?
. Do programmers need to do documention?
. How does architecture fit in with lightweight
methodologies?
. Do tools help you slim down a process?
. If so, which ones do you recommend, and how do they
help?
. Is eXtreme programming applicable to all projects?
The session also covers two scenarios:
(a) Your project uses a heavyweight process: How do
you switch?
What success patterns have you observed to
successfully slim
down? (b) Your management is leery of eXtreme
programming or
anything close to it. What do you do?
