My Philosophy in:
 Project Management:
   • Tailor, Remove bottlenecks, Enable your team
   • Take some risks to get innovative products
   • Quality is not injected in the end of the project
Test Management:
  • Risk based, prioritized testing based on Requirements coverage
  • Effectively use tools to fight with complexity. „Do not fight with a sword against a
     spaceship“ –unless you are in starwars
  • Do not think only on what to test but also when
Agile SW Development:
  • Ensure added Business value available and usable in every iteration. It’s early usage
     is the gain after all.
  • Ensure you have a good and lean design to re-factor in every iteration
  • Full automated regression. Develop Test Driven when possible
  • Sync dev and testing. Make them work on the same topic at the same time, so that
     they can collaborate
Agile Project Management:
  • It is the team that makes it happen not the PM.
  • Collaboration is not optional.
  • Manage to give a glance of the future to the stakeholders and keep your
     commitments

    My Philosophy in: Project Management: • Tailor, Remove bottlenecks, Enable your team • Take some risks to get innovative products • Quality is not injected in the end of the project Test Management: • Risk based, prioritized testing based on Requirements coverage • Effectively use tools to fight with complexity. „Do not fight with a sword against a spaceship“ –unless you are in starwars • Do not think only on what to test but also when Agile SW Development: • Ensure added Business value available and usable in every iteration. It’s early usage is the gain after all. • Ensure you have a good and lean design to re-factor in every iteration • Full automated regression. Develop Test Driven when possible • Sync dev and testing. Make them work on the same topic at the same time, so that they can collaborate Agile Project Management: • It is the team that makes it happen not the PM. • Collaboration is not optional. • Manage to give a glance of the future to the stakeholders and keep your commitments
