In this session, Sunil shares the agile adoption experience that a Six Sigma Black Belt and an agile coach took borrowing concepts from Lean/Six Sigma to help promote and sustain the change that adoption to agile brought to the software development team. Are they opposing concepts or complementary?

One of the most important parts of a ScrumMaster’s role is to remove barriers. Lean Six Sigma’s DMAIC methodology, used to solve difficult problems with unknown root causes, should be a powerful tool in the Scrum Master’s arsenal. Unfortunately, with all the blogs, articles, books, lectures and tweets on Scrum best practices, there are very few on utilizing Lean Six Sigma methods for solving barriers within a Scrum deployment and even fewer practitioners. This may be due to several factors, including misunderstandings in both worlds, resentment from legacy “process” improvement methods, bad historical application of Six Sigma within software development, no cross-realm expertise, and more. This presentation will focus on debunking the myths and misconceptions and present intuitive ways on using Lean Six Sigma methods as a powerful barrier-busting tool in the ScrumMaster’s, management’s and the team’s arsenal. A case studies from industry will be presented as empirical evidence on the methods discussed.

How Lean, Six Sigma and Agile all work under the same umbrella at xerox

Business901

This is a transcription of the podcast, Adding Customer Value in Development at Xerox that featured Patrick Waara talking about Xerox’s use of Agile techniques. Pat has been with Xerox for nearly 25 years teaching Lean, Six Sigma, and Agile techniques to Xerox’s software development community improving their software development capability. Our conversation originally was designed to discuss swarming and Lean problem solving. However we ventured off into the subject of how Lean, Six Sigma and Agile all work under the same umbrella

Kaizen solution by S.M.JUNAID

Junaid Syed Junaid

Automating regression testing on large-scale agile projects with multiple independent Scrum teams is not a cake walk. Because there is no single "test team" that performs all the testing-each Scrum team develops and runs independent tests, gaps arise as different automation implementations spring up. One team adds a new function which breaks automated tests, setting back the progress of other teams. Scott Schnier reviews one organization's journey developing a "test community of practice" to coordinate test development and maintenance across Scrum teams. Scott shares the lessons they learned, particularly selecting tools compatible with other developer and tester needs. Learn how Scott extended the JUnit framework to support automated functional testing and how his teams keep the standard that a user story is not really done until all its tests are "green" in the continuous integration, regression test pipeline. Take back a new appreciation for the challenges-and solutions-for automating testing on really big agile projects.

Lessons about failure from the girl who came last by Elise Aplin at #AgileInd...

Agile Software Community of India

Everyone has stories of failure. That time you fell off your bike. The day you wore your jumper backwards without realising . That wireframe that confused your customers. The new feature no one used. Failure is an inevitable part of life and as our delivery practices have matured we’ve celebrated the role that failure plays in building our products. We Fail Fast. We Fail Forward. We Fail Better. It almost feels like we want to fail. It’s as if failure itself is our goal. Has this obsession with failure clouded our thinking and distracted us from what we are actually trying to achieve? In this session I will explore the prevailing ideas around failure and how they limit our ability to grow our teams and, just as importantly, the individuals that make up those teams. This talk will leave you with practical actions you can take to create a culture of learning and empowerment…and ultimately create a culture of success rather than failure.

How to successfully craft a business agility transformation? by Phil Abernath...

Agile Software Community of India

Based on 12 years of experience in numerous transformations, some small, some mammoth, some successful and some not, this talk will outline how to craft a successful Agility transformation from scratch to finish. The talk will address the following million-dollar questions: Why would you even want to transform and why is Business Agility one of the most popular options today? Once you’ve decided to transform, where do you start and how to plan and set up the transformation for success? What are the parts of a business or organization that need to be transformed? Think of the 3 ‘S’s – Structure, Systems, and Style. What is the target transformation state? How do you manage the transformation and tackle the issue of scale? What to do when the organizational antibodies come for you? What does success look like and how do you measure it? When should you stop and get the hell out? A talk filled with real-world stories and ‘too funny to be true’ incidents that will show you the way, or what to avoid?

T-minus 10… 9… 8… We have lift-off! by Talia Lancaster & Angie Doyle

Agile Software Community of India

Getting new teams to work together is hard. Really. Hard. Is it because there is so much hype around new Agile teams? Or is it because there is such a focus on “doing things right” (or “doing” Agile right), that we forget about the people actually doing the work? Regardless of the reason, before we can change the way people work... we need to focus on the things that are important for teamwork to work! We believe that the key to high-performance teams is creating an intentional culture that respects and embraces diversity - whether it be race, gender, class, culture, age, beliefs, language, skills or background. So join us as we explore the Team Canvas – sort of like a Business Model Canvas for teamwork - covering nine essential teamwork elements: Purpose - Why we are doing what we are doing? People & Roles - What are our names, roles and responsibilities? Common goals - What do we as a group want to achieve together? Personal goals - What do I as an individual want to achieve? Team values - What do we really stand for and believe in? Needs and expectations - What do each of us need to be successful in a diverse team? Rules & Activities - How do we communicate and keep everyone up to date? Strengths & Assets - What skills do we have in the team? Weaknesses & Risks - What are the weaknesses we have, as an individual and as a team? We will walk through our agenda for team lift-offs, facilitation posters and preparation work required, materials needed, and facilitation tips and tricks. All packaged in a handy pocket guide, that you can use to explore tried and tested techniques for each essential element. We will also have an opportunity to practice some of these techniques during the session. Get ready to lift-off your team in T-minus 10... 9... 8...

Test Encapsulation: Automated Tests that Decide for Themselves by Rahul Verma...

Agile Software Community of India

Test Encapsulation has its basis in a research paper I wrote about a decade back for Testing Experience magazine and later presented in a some conferences. At the heart of test encapsulation is introspection - making 'test' the most powerful component of the test automation engine, providing all meta data to it so that it can make run time decisions for itself. It's a complete rethinking of the way test automation engines are architected internally. The ideas were at a very nascent stage at that time. And well, they were just ideas and I was told how impossible they were. So, I ended up experimenting with the concept for almost a decade, creating 20+ automation engines, big and small, touching the philosophies to various levels. They had varying amount of success w.r.t. where I wanted them to be. At last, I have got it right to a fair extent. This presentation would be more than theoretical exploration of possibilities. I would demonstrate a test engine that achieves many of the ideas that I discuss. The engine would be free and open-sourced so that attendees can freely experiment further.

Retrospective Anti-Patterns by Aino Corry at #AgileIndia2019

Agile Software Community of India

Anti-Patterns are like patterns, only more informative. With anti-patterns you will first see what patterns reoccur in "bad" retrospectives and then you will see how to avoid, or remedy, the situation. Based on her experience with facilitating retrospectives, join Aino for an entertaining and informative presentation on the anti-patterns she has seen and how to overcome the problems. We also encourage the audience to chip-in with their experiences or questions along the way.

#NoProjects - Why, What How by Shane Hastie & Evan Leybourn at #AgileIndia2019

Agile Software Community of India

Today success comes from building products people love, creating loyal customers and serving the broader stakeholder community. In this thoughtful exploration on the future of work, the authors explore the past, present and future of the “project”. And why, in today’s fast changing & hyper-competitive world, running a temporary endeavour is the wrong approach to building sustainable products and how #noprojects is fundamentally changing the way companies work. The metrics by which we have historically defined success are no longer applicable and we need to re-examine the way value is delivered in the new economy. This book starts from the premise that our goal is to create value, for the customer, for the organisation and for society as a whole and shows how to empower and optimise our teams to achieve this. The authors draw on modern management approaches to provide proven techniques and tools for producing, and sustaining, creative products that go beyond “meeting requirements”. By creating teams who are accountable for business outcomes, engineering for customer delight, and creating value for all stakeholders - profitability, customer satisfaction and employee engagement are all increased. This book is far more than just a catalogue of practices and tools which you can apply in your product development. It contains inspirational stories from individuals, teams and organisations who have switched to this new way of thinking and working. It exposes the risks on the pathway and how others have overcome these obstacles More details: https://confengine.com/agile-india-2019/proposal/8313/noprojects-why-what-how Conference link: https://2019.agileindia.org

The Deep Work Divide by Swanand Pagnis at #AgileIndia2019

Agile Software Community of India

Deep Work™ is real. It's effective. It's immensely valuable for knowledge work. And yet, it's rare. Organizations write software in two modes, the focussed mode centered around individual technical skill, and the collaboration mode centered around the communication within the team. By nature, these two styles are at odds with each other and preferring one means downplaying the other. We know that stellar quality work can come out of an intensely focused mode of working. But we also know that equally stellar quality of work comes from highly aligned teams that work together like a well-oiled engine. How then should we find a balance between the two? What can leaders and managers do to encourage both? How do we keep the changes small but fundamental? Modern work cultures and environments are tailored for collaborative work and do not give enough thought to deep work. We will look at how making small changes to the work-day schedule, and the work environment can bridge the gap and support knowledge workers to do the best work of their life.

Beyond Estimates: Estimates or NoEstimates? by Woody Zuill at #AgileIndia2019

Agile Software Community of India

The default use of an "estimate-driven" approach is pervasive in software development efforts. While estimates can be useful, it is worthwhile to scrutinize our use of estimates, and to seek better ways to manage the development of software when estimates are not appropriate. [NOTE: For this session, I am referring to the use of estimates of cost, time, or effort for software projects, features, or tasks.] There are a number of things to explore. For example, do we really need estimates for everything we currently use them for? Are we getting a reasonable benefit from them? Is it possible to manage software development without them? In this session we will start with an information gathering exercise to help us gain a shared idea of our current understanding of the purpose and use of estimates. From here we'll move on to examine the nature of software development projects and a few possible other ways to approach our work.

Mob Programming and the Power of Flow by Woody Zuill at #AgileIndia2019

Agile Software Community of India

Five people at one computer? How can that possibly be productive? While this seems like a reasonable question, it's not easily answered - until we begin to understand the power of flow. Mob Programming grew from the quest of one team to learn how to work well together. Once we started We almost immediately noticed that working this way provided better results in a variety of ways: We were getting more done, and they were the more important thing The quality of our work was increasing dramatically Our Knowledge, skills, and capabilities were improving rapidly And all while we were having a lot of fun as well! While we noticed these benefits and more, and it was clear this was in a large part due to working well together throughout the day - we didn't have an understanding of why this was working so wonderfully for us. A hint came early on when we recognized we were achieving a one-piece flow - but we didn't realize the importance of this until we started exploring the meaning and power of "flow". In this presentation, we'll share the results of that exploration, and see if we can get a better understanding of Mob Programming and the power of flow.

The Kanban Mindset by Todd Little at #AgileIndia2019

Agile Software Community of India

This day is all about the “Agile Mindset”, but what about the “Kanban Mindset?” What’s the same and what is different? Kanban is certainly consistent with the “Agile Mindset,” but also brings in concepts from Lean and other management approaches. Join Todd as he shares how the Kanban Method focuses on the following areas in order to drive continuous improvement: Understand the system Manage the flow of value Balance Demand and Capacity Limit WIP to improve predictability Find and address bottlenecks Make Policies Explicit Incremental improvement through experiment and measurement Double loop learning (process improvement & product improvement) Scale through the enterprise More details: https://confengine.com/agile-india-2019/proposal/8214/the-kanban-mindset Conference link: https://2019.agileindia.org

Agile Software Community of India

The talk is to share experiences and learnings with the digital transformation at the company Siemens. All of us who work in large, traditional cooperation can undoubtedly learn a lot from agile showcase companies like Spotify and Airbnb. But we also understand that these approaches are not easy to transfer in every context. Large companies with structures, processes and culture that evolved over decades have very special challenges in such a transformation. A few years ago, Siemens embarked on its transformation journey. We are in the middle of the transformation from a classic industrial company of the 20th century to a digital company of the 21st century. Some typical questions addressed by specific Siemens examples What scaling framework to apply; if any? Top-down or bottom-up transformation? What are the pillars of a transformation initiative? How to become efficient and adaptable at the same time? How to accelerate leadership development on all levels?

Regulations eat Agile for breakfast by Gaitis Kasims at #AgileIndia2019

Agile Software Community of India

Quality in Eurofins Genomics is a central focus point - analysis we do or products we produce have critical applications, be it production of drugs, identifying rare diseases or gene editing. IT is a driving force behind the scenes which challenges us to ensure the highest quality standards without compromising on speed. When we start a new project, we do it with enthusiasm and feeling of doing something meaningful or even cool. Following scrum we quickly establish our velocity and deliver soon first release into production. Overall quality is quite good; results from testing acceptable, deadlines are coming so nothing can stop us. Let’s prioritize last bugs, fix critical, move rest into backlog – now we can be proud of having delivered value to users! We continue delivering at ever increasing speed as team matures! Unfortunately the idyllic scenery gets soon destroyed by first, more and more effort needs to be spent addressing issues from both QA and production. We spend time arguing with QA and users on what is bug or if this defect is P2 or P3 or can even be seen as P4, from time to time we take a sprint to “stabilize”, but all too often nothing changes. User stories are getting spilled to next sprints, we postpone releases to have more time for testing, club them with next releases and finally find ourselves in downward spiral.. As quality cannot be compromised we quickly decide that Agile is fine, but as we work in regulated environment we need to be pragmatic and adjust Agile to our needs. What comes out is unfortunately not much different to Waterfall or V-Model, we still keep sprints and do reviews, but realize that only form is left. I am directly responsible for IT in Eurofins Genomics so will share experience from the field on how did we overcome this and reanimated Agile.

10 years of transforming mindset by Hendrik Esser at #AgileIndia2019

Agile Software Community of India

In 2008 I was member of a leadership team at Ericsson starting the transformation towards agility for a 2000 people organization. Soon we heard, that agile is a mindset and somehow that sounded right. But it was so hard to get: for me that full mindset change journey took about a year. Through it, I have become one of the transformation drivers at enterprise level. Today I am driving the transformation of a 15000 people business unit as organizational coach/inhouse consultant. Having worked with all kinds of people in all kinds of roles on all levels in the hierarchy across the company gave me a lot of experience with how to get the mindset across. One key learning is, that there is no one-size-fits all approach to it. People are different and different groups of people react in different ways through the group dynamics. In this talk I will share my 10-year-experience with facilitating mindset change. I will share several examples of different kinds of people and groups of people I encountered and what I found working to facilitate the mindset change.

Agile finance enabling business agility by Hendrik Esser at #AgileIndia2019

Agile Software Community of India

Adaptive handling and flow of financials are an important ingredient to business agility. Essentially what we want to achieve is, to have the money in a company flow to where it creates most value. In the modern dynamic business environment this is an increasing challenge as we on one side see the need to be very adaptive throughout the year to cope with the changes in the business and on the other side people in enterprises as well as suppliers and partners would like to have sufficient financial stability to plan their work. On top of that come regulatory requirements. For ICAgile I led an international team of professionals in 2018 to create a learning curriculum outlining the most important things you need to know about finance in an agile enterprise. This curriculum is published under creative commons license. In this talk you will get an overview of finance agility based on the professional knowledge of this team.

Expand Contract Pattern for Continuous Delivery of Databases by Leena S N at ...

Agile Software Community of India

Modifying the schema of a production database is hard. If something goes wrong, the impact on both customers and the team can be enormous. And it can be hard or even impossible to rollback a database schema change if things go wrong. And the same is true for any architectural change for a production application. The Branch by Abstraction and Strangler Pattern makes significant application changes easier. Are there any similar patterns we can use to make production database changes less risky? Indeed, there are. The Expand/Collapse pattern is a blueprint for making the database migration. It makes the remodelling both reversible and safe. By expanding the application to accommodate both the old and the new schemas in parallel, we can give ourselves time to: Migrate any downstream dependencies on the old database schema Gain confidence that the migration is safe We contract the application to the new version, once we’ve satisfied that the old schema is no longer needed. The pattern helps to make significant, but necessary refactorings to your data model in a continuous delivery way. Most importantly, without threatening the robustness of your production applications. While working with our product, I’ve successfully applied this pattern to make major changes to the core of the application, all while serving customers in production. I’ve learned some important lessons about how to best implement the Expand/Contract pattern. In this session, I’ll share my experiences on how to avoid pitfalls and succeed at these kinds of major data remodelling with hardly any downtime.

Do you want to hire the best? I suppose yes. Do you want them to grow, to improve their skills continuously and to develop your company? Hope so? But what happens if people grow quicker than the company itself? That might be an issue and you need serious changes in your company to keep employees interested to stay, to grow and to develop your company. We are using open salaries, money transparency and an advice process in ScrumTrek company to retain interest, to have a new source of enthusiasm and motivation of our employees. We started our journey 2.5 years ago and we are happy to share how it feels from inside.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support

Alan Dix

Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024 https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/ As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024

Tobias Schneck

As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other? Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
