This document proposes solutions to improve signage and door timers in the MRT system. It notes that current signs do not clearly indicate if a train has arrived or is arriving. Two sketches are provided showing updated sign displays of "ARRIVED" and "ARRIVING". It also suggests installing a timer by the escalator to show how many seconds remain until the doors close. A door timer sketch is requested along with user research on potential timers. The solutions aim to provide commuters with clearer information on train and door statuses.
Priority Poker erlaubt es dem Testteam, bewusste Entscheidungen für die Teststrategie (z.B. auf Basis von ISO 9126) oder für Session Based Test Management herbei zu führen.
Diese Präsentation gibt eine Übersicht über Priority Poker, wie es eingesetzt werden kann und welche Vorteile es im Vergleich zu den bekannten Ansätzen bietet.
Karten können gerne bei uns angefragt werden.
Zum vierten Mal in Folge hat SwissQ zum Jahresende bei der Schweizer IT Community die aktuellen Trends und Benchmarks erfragt. Daraus entstanden ein repräsentativer Überblick zum Stand des Software-Testings in der Schweiz im Jahr 2012 und ein Ausblick auf die wichtigsten Trends der kommenden Zeit.
The document proposes a solution for fast food restaurants to implement self-service kiosks where customers place their own orders. This would address issues like order errors from misheard orders and lines being held up by indecisive customers. The kiosks would allow customers to order their own food, which they would then collect from a separate collection counter. The goal is to reduce dependence on customer service staff while allowing machines to perform some tasks, potentially reducing labor needs. Sketches show examples of kiosk placement both inside and outside a McDonald's restaurant.
Um erfolgreich zu sein, müssen Test Manager mit der sich ständig entwickelnden Welt der SW-Entwicklung mithalten. Die Rollenbeschreibung des Test Managers – Planung, Steuerung und Berichterstattung der Aktivitäten im Test Prozess, mit Fokus auf die funktionalen Black-Box Tests – hat sich im letzten Jahrzehnt kaum verändert. Die Anforderungen an die Aufgabe dagegen haben sich drastisch verändert: Adoption von agilen Methoden durch immer schnellere Release-Zyklen; erhöhte Anforderungen im Bereich Sicherheit, Performanz und Usability; eine Vielzahl von “smarten” Geräten in den Händen der User. Und dabei handelt es sich nur um die offensichtlichsten.
Silvio Moser zeigt auf wie diese Trends die Art und Weise verändern wie wir Software entwickeln und testen. Dazu beschreibt er Strategien wie mit diesen Herausforderungen umgegangen werden kann. Test Manager müssen sich auf ein neues Berufsbild und somit neue Rolle einstellen: der Test Master. Während der “klassische” Test Manager hauptsächlich organisiert und kontrolliert, verhält sich der Test Master als Mediator, Moderator und Problemlöser. Stop managing and start mastering.
This document provides guidance on writing in plain language. It discusses the key principles of plain language:
1) Being brief by avoiding unnecessary words.
2) Being simple by using everyday language.
3) Being organized with a clear structure.
4) Being friendly by using a respectful, helpful tone.
5) Being action-oriented by telling the reader what to do.
The document provides examples of "before and after" rewrites that apply these principles to make communications more clear and concise for the reader. It also discusses some basic design principles for visual clarity.

This document provides advice for plain language experts on how to work effectively with lawyers. It discusses that lawyers write legal documents for daily business and establishing rights/duties. Lawyers tend to be skeptical, pessimistic, cynical, wary, left-brained, and value technical competence over emotional intelligence. They want critical analysis and are uncomfortable with praise. Lawyers are also traditional, risk-averse, want quick decisions, value structure/organization, and hear things literally. Plain language experts should show respect for legalities, write for clients/public, prove their points with examples, and appeal to lawyers' sense of justice as achieving expected outcomes rather than abstract ideals.

Agilität ist in aller Munde – von den einen abgöttisch geliebt und es soll noch andere geben, die sie nicht so gerne mögen. Jedem das Seine. Doch wie sieht die agile Landschaft in der Schweizer IT Community aus? Laden Sie die Agile Trends & Benchmarks 2012 herunter ziehen Sie Ihre eigenen Schlüsse daraus.
Diese Prezi Präsentation wurde anlässlich der Vorstellung der Resultate der Agile Trends und Benchmarks 2012 und Requirements Trends und Benchmarks 2012 gehalten. Erfahren Sie Zahlen zu der Verwendung von Scrum oder wo die Unternehmen die grössten Probleme im Requirements Engineering sehen.
Tired of ever-changing priorities?
In many projects, both in agile and traditional development environments, correct prioritisation is key. Due to diverging interests and influences among the parties involved, establishing a consensus can sometimes be difficult, if not impossible.
Moreover, the known methods of setting priorities do not always accommodate the views and opinions of all relevant stakeholders, which can lead to misconceptions and delays in development. Endless discussions about priorities become a continuous effort and prioritisations once thought well established are often corrected on a regular/daily basis.
Do these issues sound familiar to you? With Priority Poker we would like to present you with a solution that may solve many of these problems, or not even let them occur at all. Motivated by a playful approach, experts from different fields and disciplines meet in a Priority Poker session. Participants of such a session ideally consist of all stakeholders and otherwise involved or affected people/parties. Through “gambling” with priorities, the attention and motivation of the participants is easily evoked.
The rules are simple (view details in the document „Introduction and Example“) and are related to the widely known Planning Poker.
Within a few rounds of estimation, a priority sequence based on the principle of relative weighting is established. This is supported by a clear graduation of the factors used.
The simple rules facilitate a solution-oriented discussion about what is really important.
The priorities established through relations are evolving by taking into account the opinions and views of every stakeholder. The social component promises a joint implementation of the elaborated strategy and leads to successful prioritisations.
The notice sets out a person's rights if detained in South Africa in 3 sentences:
(1) The notice informs them of the reason for their detention and their rights, including the right to legal representation and to challenge the lawfulness of their detention.
(2) It outlines rights if detained, such as the right to communicate with a legal practitioner, family, and religious counselor and to adequate accommodation and medical treatment.
(3) For those arrested for an alleged offense, the notice specifies rights including the right to remain silent as anything said may be used as evidence against them and to be brought before a court following arrest.
SwissQ is publishing the annual facts and figures about Agile procedures and methods in Switzerland for the second year. Where are Swiss companies positioned when it comes to agility and where are they headed to? Besides the main trends concerning agility, we analyzed three areas in detail: “life cycle”, “techniques/methods”, and “organization, training, and tools”.
The basis for this survey consists of 580 filled questionnaires and 25 interviews with IT decision makers from different companies. We are collaborating on the report with the Institute of Technology Management of the University of St. Gallen (HSG). This collaboration demonstrates how important these topics have become for companies today and we are very pleased to have built a new bridge between the academic and the entrepreneurial world.
