Agenda~ Scrum~ TeamCompanion~ Scrum with TeamCompanion  Product Backlog & Planning the Project  Sprint Backlog & Planning a Sprint  Running a Sprint  Burndown & Progress tracking  Transparency, Inspection, Adaptation

What is Scrum?~ An agile, lightweight framework for Project Management~ Is used to manage and control software and product development using iterative, incremental practices~ Wraps existing engineering practices~ Is driven by daily and monthly feedback loops~ Is ideally suited for projects with rapidly changing or highly emergent requirements

TeamCompanion The Best TFS client for MS Outlook Outlook TFS • Emails • Work Items • Appointments • Work Item Queries • Reminders • Reports • Tasks • Builds • Documents Provides for better collaboration, efficient Agile Project Management and increased productivity in daily tasks.

Fully Featured TFS Client~ Work Item Management  Add new/related WIs with one click  Embedded Work Item Form~ Work Item Queries (flat/hierarchical)~ Reports and Sharepoint Documents~ Agile Project Management~ Offline work and „What if” analysis~ Clever graphical UI with Drag’n’Drop support

Deep integration of Outlook and TFS~ Easy transition of data between Outlook object and TFS artifacts  Create WI from Mail  Create Mail/Task/Meeting from WI  Send „Done” mails with one click~ Scheduled execution of WI Queries  Outlook style notification of changed WIs~ Show Queries and Reports in Favorites~ Powerfull Searching, Filtering and Grouping  Full text search and search with custom expressions eg. [Remaining work]>4

How do you Plan the Project?~ Product Backlog  Evolving ordered list of PBIs (Product Backlog Items - Requirements)  Describes what users need and value  Owned by the Product Owner  Each PBI is written from the user’s perspective  As a <type of user> I want <some goal> so that <some reason>.

Planning the Project~ Done by Product Owner and Team~ Product Backlog grooming  Backlog lists PBIs sorted by priority order  New PBIs added on end of Product Backlog  Product Owner re-prioritizes the Backlog~ Team estimates PBIs in Story Points~ PBIs are planned for upcoming Sprints

Planning the Project Product Backlog “As a new customer I want to PBIs register online so I can use 5 the services offered” 8 5 PBIs are listed on thePriority backlog in priority order each PBI The team estimates 3 using story points 8 New PBIs are added to the 1 product backlog

Planning the Project with TeamCompanionTools and Features~ Fully featured Product Backlog UI  Product Backlog list  Velocity Diagram  How many PBI-s were implemented in previous sprints (measured in Story Points)?  Embedded real-time statistics~ Actions  Quickly reorder PBIs using Drag’n’Drop  Easily add new PBIs with one click

What is Sprint Planning?~ Sprint Planning meeting~ Product Owner and Team add PBIs to Sprint Backlog~ Each PBI is decomposed into tasks and estimated~ Team commits to each PBI  If PBI can not be done, it is removed and possibly replaced with smaller PBI~ Team is ready ot start working

Planning a Sprint Sprint planning is complete! Team is comfortable with committing to this plan

Running a Sprint~ Tracking Progress  Daily Sprint meeting  Record completed work daily  How much work is completed  How much work needs still to be done  Use reports and dashboards~ Preparation of “potentially shippable” increment~ Demonstration of delivered business value~ Retrospective
