Faced with management that do not care about "being agile" what can a single developer do? Quite a lot! Every developer has the power to improve the organization he works in in small iterative steps – and I can show you how. If you want to make the change and don't know where to start – look no further, in this session I'll share my experience and show a few tips and tricks I learnt. As well as discuss the do and don'ts that can make all the. - How to be agile developer in a waterfall company. - Influencing people without formal authority. - Using the right practices that makes the difference - How to avoid alienating people - Discovering your allies - Know when to fight and when to "retreat" and cut your losses - Making a change without disrupting the daily routine - What being an agile evangelist is all about

What do you get when user experience drives the agile process? Dual-Track Agile, where the features of the product are discovered alongside the development of the product itself. This session will explain what dual-track agile is, the benefits of dual-track agile, the role of UX, and what to expect. It will focus on the discovery cycle, the role of validated hypotheses and assumptions and how UX uniquely contributes to this invaluable process.

UX in a Dual Track Agile World

Andrea Neuhoff

The clear benefits of agile development is a better collaboration, incremental delivery, early error detection and the elimination of unnecessary work—have made it the default approach for many teams. Some developers have questioned whether requirements fall into the category of unnecessary work, and can be cut down or even completely eliminated. Meanwhile, teams developing complex products, systems and regulated IT continue to have requirements-driven legacy processes. So how does requirements management fit in an agile world? This meetup will take a look at requirements management and how it can bring significant value to agile development in regulated IT and complex product development projects, and sets out the characteristics of an effective requirements management approach in an agile environment.

One of the core values expressed in the agile manifesto is “working software over comprehensive documentation” because working software is what delivers value to our customers. Agile development requires a sofware development team have working software ready to deploy at the end of each iteration; but accomplishing this can be harder than it seems, especially when first starting with agile. In this highly interactive session you will understand how a team definition of “Done” is necessary to making agile delivery possible, and what you can do to make it happen while avoiding the pitfalls.

Realizing a solution is no longer enough Imagine yourself a clever software developer, sitting in his room, working deep at night. For weeks, months, he's breeding on that one perfect solution. He codes like crazy, refactors, rebuilds. He wants it to be perfect. May be he showed it to some of his friends and they told him they like the idea. After a lot of hard work the solution is finally ready. Excited and full of expectations he introduces it to the market. Soon, all his effort will pay off, money will start flowing. Unfortunately, nobody seems to be interested in using the product and for sure they don't want to pay for it. What went wrong? How to prevent? During the lecture we will discuss how to cut this big salami into small pieces by using a lean development approach based on Scrum.

Lean development based on scrum

Peter Horsten

he Application of agile software development process to engineering software projects has shown good progress over the years. However, in a globally connected world having an entire team working on developing the software from one location does not typically happen. Agile techniques and processes are successful when teams are co-located. This project tries to find a solution to this problem by using virtual reality to fill the gap between remote located teams and fast paced development environment. This provides an immersive feeling of being in office with colleagues even if the participants are not in same room physically. This can greatly improve the collaborative work. A Virtual Reality (VR) environment is developed for the team members to interact in. We used Oculus DK2 as the headset and Leap Motion to interact within that world. We have explored Implementation of pair programming. The VR application developed has a browser which can be interacted with VR controls. The browser syncs itself across all windows and users. When this feature of browser is used with cloud services, it helps to provide a screen sharing without actually sharing the screen. This application features a board where people can come and discuss meeting agenda. The participants in the meeting can walk to different virtual rooms. The participants can go to virtual outdoors from the virtual office. The application works with both VR headset and without VR headset. This application was tested among few students to get the feedback. The programmers reported that this application could really improve communication. Future The project can be developed in different stages in future. The first step will be adding leap motion controls to move around in the virtual office. More browser controls will be moved to leap motion interactable buttons from gaze based interaction. In the future, the project will be developed to have multiple platforms such as android and iOS. The project must be updated frequently to use new and better VR devices and its controls.

Building Lean and Agile in the Real World

Kevin Goldsmith

Abstract: As large organizations become more interested in DevOps and the velocity it can offer, introducing new ways of working to teams with longtime habits and familiar workflows can be challenging. Shifting goals, new tools, and new skills create a stressful environment for technologists still trying to keep applications and services running. New tools should make work easier, not worse! This talk will cover some of the common pitfalls large organizations face when radically changing work as well as tips for technologists and managers for surviving the implementation of large changes.

Randy is a 25-year veteran of Silicon Valley, having led engineering organizations at eBay, Google, Oracle, and a number of other companies. Through the lens of his personal experience from hands-on engineer to architect to CTO, at organizations ranging from tiny startups to global giants, Randy will discuss several important aspects of engineering cultures, which both support and hinder the ability to innovate: hiring and retention, ownership and collaboration, quality and discipline, and learning and experimentation. Randy will suggest some learnings about what has worked well -- and what has not -- in creating and sustaining an effective engineering culture. He will further offer some concrete suggestions on how other organizations -- both large and small -- can evolve their cultures as well.

We’re all doing Agile nowadays, aren’t we? We’ll all delivering software in an Agile way. But what does that mean? Does it mean sprints and stand-ups? Kanban even? But what about Extreme Programming? If as a development team we’re not using pair programming, test driven development, continuous integration, and other XP practices, then we’re not really doing Agile software development and we may be on a march to frustration, or even failure. I’m going to look at why the current trend of companies and projects adopting Scrum, calling themselves Agile, but not transitioning their development to XP, is a recipe for disaster. I’d like to cover the main practices of XP as well as other good practices that can really help a team deliver quality software, whether they’re doing two-week sprints, Kanban, or even Waterfall. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZgnY9fAHOA

Coders are writing tests and testers are writing code. This seemingly paradoxical truth is becoming more and more prevalent in companies of every size. But coders and testers still have very different cultures and processes and are actually sharing very little knowledge, even in companies that have supposedly taken down the wall between the disciplines. In this talk, we explore the increasingly blurry lines, discuss some of the differences in the approaches coders and testers bring to the table, and provide practical examples of lessons learned by sharing knowledge, cultural perspectives and evolved wisdom.

SharePoint gives us a great platform for developing sophisticated intranet portals and collaboration sites and many other workloads. But it can also be a challenge to use modern software development frameworks like Scrum and XP. Wouldn’t it be great if we could get all the benefits of Agile practices – faster development, predictable deliveries, better quality, less stress and happy stakeholders? In this session we will cover the definitions of Lean, Agile, Scrum, Kanban, XP, and TDD. Then we will look at the specific challenges around Agile SharePoint development and some development techniques to overcome these obstacles. This talk covers both project delivery and engineering. We’ll look at unit tests, integration tests, UI tests, continuous integration and, of course, test-driven development (TDD) with practical experiences from real-life Agile SharePoint projects.

Tracing the root cause of a performance issue requires a lot of patience, experience, and focus. It’s so hard that we sometimes attempt to guess by trying out tentative fixes, but that usually results in frustration, messy code, and a considerable waste of time and money. This talk explains how to correctly zoom in on a performance bottleneck using three levels of profiling: distributed tracing, metrics, and method profiling. After we learn to read the JVM profiler output as a flame graph, we explore a series of bottlenecks typical for backend systems, like connection/thread pool starvation, invisible aspects, blocking code, hot CPU methods, lock contention, and Virtual Thread pinning, and we learn to trace them even if they occur in library code you are not familiar with. Attend this talk and prepare for the performance issues that will eventually hit any successful system.

The microservices honeymoon is over. When starting a new project or revamping a legacy monolith, teams started looking for alternatives to microservices. The Modular Monolith, or 'Modulith', is an architecture that reaps the benefits of (vertical) functional decoupling without the high costs associated with separate deployments. This talk will delve into the advantages and challenges of this progressive architecture, beginning with exploring the concept of a 'module', its internal structure, public API, and inter-module communication patterns. Supported by spring-modulith, the talk provides practical guidance on addressing the main challenges of a Modultith Architecture: finding and guarding module boundaries, data decoupling, and integration module-testing. You should not miss this talk if you are a software architect or tech lead seeking practical, scalable solutions.
