Description
Agile revolutionized the way people think about developing software, but there are literally dozens of ways that you can go agile. This book demystifies agile methodologies: why they're designed the way they are, what problems they address, and the values, principles, and ideas they embody
Agile has revolutionized the way teams approach software development, but with dozens of agile methodologies to choose from, the decision to go agile can be tricky. This practical book helps you sort it out, first by grounding you in agile's underlying principles, then by describing four specific - and well-used - agile methods: Scrum, extreme programming (XP), Lean, and Kanban. Each method focuses on a different area of development, but they all aim to change your team's mindset - from individuals who simply follow a plan to a cohesive group that makes decisions together. Whether you're considering agile for the first time, or trying it again, you'll learn how to choose a method that best fits your team and your company. Understand the purpose behind agile's core values and principles Learn Scrum's emphasis on project management, self-organization, and collective commitment Focus on software design and architecture with XP practices such as test-first and pair programming Use Lean thinking to empower your team, eliminate waste, and deliver software fast Learn how Kanban's practices help you deliver great software by managing flow Adopt agile practices and principles with an agile coach
