Implementing Scrum in VS2010 + TFS

Burndowns

Planning

Tracking

And then the devil comes in…
Pressure to meet deadlines leads to cutting corners
Undone work
Bugs
Teams are responsible for quality of their work
Estimation should take this into account
Velocity
Iteration

What about Quality ?
Internal
External
Conceptual integrity
Maintainability
Reusability
Availability
Interoperability
Manageability
Performance
Reliability
Scalability
Security
Supportability
Testability
Usability

Are we done ?
Not until the product meets the quality criteria defined by the product owner
SMART
Prioritized
The team can then
list all activities required to be done
Estimate effort properly
Typical definition of done
Development
Smoke Test
Accepted by product owner

Improving definition of done
Team’s responsibility
Reduces technical debt
Development process predictability
Design
Development
Code review
Automated tests
Continuous integration
Acceptance tests

Automated tests for bug control

Modeling tools for design reviews

Architecture for the bigger picture
No agreed upon definition
I won’t try to come up with a perfect onr
Architecture describes basic the structure of the system – Luke Hohmann
Minimizes dependencies between subsystems
Designed according to human motivations and desires
Possesses certain aesthetics
The important stuff

Emergent Architecture in Scrum
High priority nonfunctional requirements
SMART business objectives
In product backlog
Every sprint has to deliver some functionality
Cost allocationof architecture and infrastructure work decreases as the project progresses

Scaling
Start with core team
3-4 developers, 1 tester, 1 BA
Lay down initial architecture
Split teams after they’ve grown past 9
Manages dependencies between teams work
All code still needs to be DONE
Function Teams
Independent teams
All required skills in one team
Layer Teams
Minimizes dependencies around layer interfaces
Integration teams to deliver Done funtionality

Incremental

Iterative

Improving engineering practices
Principles
Coupling, Cohesion, redundancy, encapsulation, testable, DRY
Patterns
Practices and techniques
TDD, BDD
SOLID, IOC, DI
DDD
Design
Test-First Development
Refactoring
Code review
Pair Programming
